That's a good question as that much moisture (5.4 g) seems like far too much to be able to extract from the air inside even larger 11 or 14inch SCTs, even in reasonably humid and warmish temperatures. It's Samford, Queensland as Jonathan's location, so there's no doubting a warm and humid climate is possible. Who knows, it could even be water accumulated from a leak.
Perhaps Jonathan could comment....
It would be good to know if the dessicant bag was measured as 50g before installation or whether it was just taken at its nominal specified mass, straight out of its packaging as new.
Whatever it was and given the icing up, it's certainly better out than in
