Your not dunking the miners in water, they're just in moist air.   No issue with rusting.   Even if it did, the miners would be worthless due to difficulty way before the aluminum eroded any significant level.

I got a good look. Question is, will rust be an issue after a few months at high humidity?
It should be ok right?

Yes. It works between 20%-90% relative humidity. Keep humidity between these numbers at all times. When humidity will be reaching almost threshold, think about air dryer or wetter. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bitcoin-Miners-BTC-Mining-Antminer-S9-13-5th-s-APW3-Power-Supply-In-Stock-/172551882825

Hi Vice. Thats the specs for the PSU only. Can be found here  https://shop.bitmain.com/productDetail.htm?pid=00020170627175024105t4k8SjM5067C  .

As for the antminer itself, anyone operated it in a high humidity area before? I cant seem to find it on the antminer specs.

Vice, wat humidity do u run then at?
I never mined any cryptos and still know it bcoz my older brother is professional gamer and mines Ethereum on his gaming rig when he don't play CS:GO. I'm pro too but in 1.6.

Anyone use it at that humidity and without problems? My location has 31 temp, 65-70% humidity.

I will be using fans to remove the hot air in the room after ducting the outlet through a wall. However, with fans, there will be pretty high airflow and thus, dehumidifier will not work so well yes.
Thus, is it ok to let it run at 65-70% humidity?

Iceland has higher humidity at 85% from wat i see in google.
