Can the RH vary that much in the same container??

Am I missing something?

If it can how do you equalize it?
That's why I use a small fan -- more powerful than an Oust fan. With boxes and bags blocking natural air-flow I feel a little assistance is needed. I know that alot of people think I am crazy and that the fan is unneeded, but they are obviously wrong...

The fan I use is an RV refrigerator fan; cost about $14. Takes two D batteries and works great.
