Don't buy a belt tension gauge. A good way to test belt tension is to compare it to another car. Feel the way a belt feels on a new car, and feel the way the belt feels on yours. If it is water condensation, there nothing you can really do other than park the car in the garage. As you mentioned, if there are cracks or excessive smoothness (or the belt is shiny) replace it; otherwise the baby powder trick will work.
