Hey thanks for all the feedback guys!
Julian has the base cause ID'd. As I sit here, the RH is 83%, which is
high, but 65% is run of the mill here.
This was not a big problem with the garage we knocked down. It was far
from sealed and might as well have been uninsulated.
With all the air changes and no temperature difference to the outdoors,
nothing condensed.
Now, with no AC, I see interior temps 10F below outdoors so the chances
of condensation are darned good.
(it's north-facing, on a downslope and the interior wall is cool
because of the house AC.)
I'm sometimes away for 3-4 weeks at a time, so I'm happy to drop an
extra buck to put in a pair.
I plan to use only the drain lines, so no pumps to quit or tanks to
empty.

I'm starting to see some unwanted humidity signs in the new garage
(tiny
rust spots on box cutter blades, for example)
It's 1500 sq. with a fully sealed floor and full insulation including
the doors.
I'm thinking one dehumidifier at each end of the garage, so I can run a
drain out at the corner of the doors.

A pair of these has a lot of excess capacity, but I'm happy to pay for
a
little redundancy.
Seems like one is bound to fail just after you've gone on a month long
trip and there is too much expensive metal sitting there.
Any thoughts or recommendations please??
Thanks
