IMHO.
I keep in the bomb shelter.
A dry cabinet will be as good as it warranty e.g. if need to carry-in, is the service centre accessible or can bring in the faulty part ?

My store room has no place.

IMO keeping the dry cabinet in an enclosed place is not a good idea because the place will get warm without air circulation. Moreover there maybe balanced paints and thinner being kept there too...........so a bit dangerous

If room don't on aircon will it feel warm with the dry cabinet on standby?

Not that I noticed. It is at a corner of the room with no direct light or intentional heating.

Camera and lenses are meant to be for heavy duty use, you already gotten dry cabi to control humidity levels, and at room temps +/- I highly doubt it will shorten component lifespan in a meaningful way.

I'm not talking of component lifespan. I was asking whether the room feels warm as the days go by as the dry cabinet is always constantly on.

If you hand feel the outside of the dry cabinet and it feels warm to touch then heat is a bit high and dissipating to the surrounding

IMHO.
Per hour, a person can generate more than 10 times the heat vs the 90L dry cabinet.
If there is some ventilation in the room, should not be an issue.

Just to share some information.
I have 3 dry cabinets inside my store. Previous was 2 active, now left 1 active.
There will be at least 1 dry cabinet operating over the last 10 years.
The temperature inside the dry cabinet is about 1-2 degrees higher than the store room temperature.
I set the dry cabinet humidity to above 40.
The humidity inside the storeroom is 50. :ROFLMAO:
