Sounds like serious humidity. Perhaps research solar kiln and use  
that basic design. Moving air can be accomplished without a fan.  
What's the floodlight for?

Yep, thought about that as well.  I have a location I could try
a completely closed building with cloistery windows and a black
paint job.  Add a simple vent and it bet it would work well too.
But I don't think the wife (or the HOA) would like it.
