Default Moisture Absorber

I was watching a youtube video and saw that the guy put a moisture absorber in his battery area of the ace 250. This is probably a really good idea but I was wondering if anyone knew where a good place was to get one at? I never really saw one anywhere but I also was not looking for it. Do you think Wal-Mart would sell them?

They are the things that come in new pairs of shoes. I think they are called silica packs or something like that.

Yeah, alot of people get those silica gel packs to put in their boxes to control condensation. Not sure if Wal*Mart sells them, but a Google search of "silica gel packs" bring up tons of online retailers.
