Interesting stuff. We don't have humidity problems in California. My only experience with dehumidifiers was in Acapulco. We turned one on in our room, went to dinner, and came back in 2 hours to find the 2.5 liter unit almost full to the brim with water it had removed from the air.

Your basement results don't surprise me. Cooler air holds a lot less moisture than warmer air does. We used to add humidity to our home in the winter in Utah. There was a humidifier pan in the heating unit.
