They are waterproof and seal very well. If you are only worried about one or two months out of the year then a sealed case makes sense; lock your toys away when it is dry and they will still be dry in 60 days. Likewise, Tina's solution of wiring a 25 watt bulb in closet that you can shut the door will keep your gear in good shape.
