Second the rechargeable motion sensing led strips! Dime a dozen on Ali Express. I have them in all the hallways in my house, garden shed, at the front door so I am not fumbling with my keys in the dark. If you mount them with the supplied adhesive magnets you can take them with you as a torch, feels like you are using a minecraft torch.

is there any harm in overheating silica when drying it out?
well the goal of treating addiction is generally not to 'cure' it but to 'manage' it. If you can come up with a way of systematically helping populations of people manage their addictions without using money, I am all ears.
What do you mean by 'addictions are not breakable with money'? Are you saying that medical intervention and healthcare are not effective for people suffering addiction?
