## Overview

The Dampit is the original patented humidifier designed specifically for violins and other string instruments, protecting delicate wood from drying and cracking since 1966. Made from premium materials, it maintains optimal humidity levels even in extreme climates, is easy to use, and offers long-lasting performance trusted by professional musicians worldwide.

## Description

Don't let your violin dry out! Whether you live in a hot, dry desert area or in the freezing arctic zone, the scientifically tested Dampit humidifier will protect your instrument against damage by placing it in the instrument to maintain humidity, even while you're playing. The original humidifier for string instruments, Dampits have been protecting wood instruments for over 40 years. Invented and patented in 1966 by professional violinist and composer, Ralph Hollander, the Dampit has protected the instruments of thousands of musicians worldwide. Dampits are the most economical, efficient and time-tested system for keeping your instrument properly humidified. Other systems claim to maintain humidity levels but will not raise humidity under dry conditions. The Dampit does both which prevents cracks and restores damaged wood. The Dampit is made of the finest materials, long-lasting and easy to use. With proper care your Dampit will give you years of good service without needing frequent replacement. Because of the unmatched reliability of the Dampit, musicians all over the world have trusted it to protect their precious instruments.

Review: Superior Quality - I am a viola/violin collector and I've been using Dampit and similar products for a while. I tried other alternatives to Dampit (as they are hard to find sometimes!), but there is no comparison - Dampit is the best value for money, better quality that will last, and works superior compared to other similar products. I also use it on my acoustic guitars and ukeleles. I currently have about a dozen Dampits and I switch them around in my collection.
Review: Old standby - These are the old standby for keeping the interior of your instrument humidified. I live in a very dry part of the country, and have looked into room as well as instrument humidifiers to keep my instruments happy. Since I haven't found the perfect room humidifier for my needs yet, and other instrument humidifiers are kind of fussy or weird, I went with Dampit again. Dampits have stood the test of time for me for thirty years. They're inexpensive and effective. Yes, they need checking and maintenance, but with good water and proper use they will last for years.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this fit a 7/8 violin?**
A: It all depends on the size of the circles of the f holes. Dampits does not fit even for the full size violins with the smaller f holes.  The minimum circle size must be 8 mm.

**Q: What is the diameter of this Dampit?  I need to know the diameter of the largest part that inserts inside the instrument, the end plug.**
A: Without actually measuring I'd guess the diameter is less than one-half inch.

**Q: If I live in Florida, do you think I need one of these?**
A: I don't live in Florida.  Hence I don't know the year round humidity there.  I used to go to Tampa, Melbourne, Orlando, West Palm Beach all the time, and every time I went the place was quite humid.  If the year round humidity is at least 50%, I really don't think you need a Dampit.  It also depends on where you leave your violin on a daily basis most of the time.  It makes a difference if you leave your violin in the open (in a room) versus in a case.  I leave my violin in the open and when I put violin in a case, I usually put in the dampit before I close the case.

**Q: Is there only one in the package, because I want one for each f hole.**
A: There is only one humidifier in the package. It seems to be enough. Also, if you use only one in the right f-hole, it can never touch the soundpost.
