So, the lid stays hotter at all times, so no vapor can condense on it? The vials will have caps, so it is close to a sealed
system where some easy thermodynamics rules can be applied. Evaporation will only be local movement and condensing again as
pressure increases a little, and diffusion moves vapor to a cold surface. Is the vapor pressure ever enough to pop caps off?
