I believe we are talking about a dehumidifier here.

A Golden Rod is simply a heater. Raising the temperature within a safe does not reduce the level of moisture that is within the safe. In technical terms, increased temperature does reduce the theoretical humidity %, but cant alter the actual water mass.
The best solution is to use a desiccant adsorbent, or a Vapour Phase Inhibiter. Go here https://xrust.com.au/ for more info.
No, I do not have any affiliation other than that I use their products.

Your local $2 store sells quite large dehumidifiers very cheaply - and work very well. I get two years from one in a safe...but I would Still like to be able to slip into a conversation, sometime / anytime - why yes, Ive got a 10” gold, very warm rod...
