What can be done to a dry / low moisture bat to bring it back to life?

[@aash183]

What's the ideal moisture content that should be maintained in a bat for longevity ? I was assuming between 8% - 12% ? And when oiling a bat to ensure we do not over/under oil it, is it good to hit that target percentage ?
