another convenient and cheap way is to keep the cameras and lenses in a 
closed box with a low voltage bulb switched
on permanently and pray for no black out or outage

The constant heat keeps the equipment dry and prevents fungi growth

This was the modus operandi when "dry boxes" were not available
