Ever wondered how long your VHS tapes will last? 📼⏳ Typically, VHS tapes start to degrade after 10 to 25 years, even under ideal conditions. Here are four tips to help you store them better:
1. Keep them cool and dry: Store tapes in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture and heat damage. 🌡️🧊
2. Store vertically: Keep tapes upright to avoid pressure on the tape reels. 📚⬆️
3. Avoid magnets: Keep tapes away from magnetic fields, which can erase the content. 🧲🚫
4. Rewind and play periodically: This helps to prevent the tape from sticking together. 🔄🎞️
