Keeping extension cord away from dew

Hi guys, i've just set up outside for the night and wanted to try out a new way of keeping dew and moisture away from my power supply (i.e. extension cord and multiplug surge protector). I thought maybe I'd use one of those fridge bags from aldi since its insulated with zippers and more or less moisture proof (on the inside anyways). Does anyone see any problem with using this? Or maybe it wont be effective at all! Who knows!

EDIT: please dont judge my cable management, I feel bad about it already!

Tony i think it will work, even better put it under the table where it will get less condensation. I use one of these:

and put all my electrics in the bottom, even my 40AH battery will fit. Zip it up and it stays dry. Its also a good laptop workstation and i use the storage box on top as shown in your photo to keep the laptop dry.

These days i am mainly in my obs but i still use the popup cupboard.

Yep, that will work. Anything that keeps it up off the ground, insulated and covered is good. Hiding it under the table as well is good. Means you are less likely to trip over it and keeps it drier on top.
