That's when I'll be doing most of my guessing. Just hoping Mav gets you his first guess before then.

Glad you and your family are safe, Dan. Stay that way.

Dupont Xtend. Don't leave home without it.

No question at all, you should ask as many questions as necessary to feel comfortable before putting money down, and I wasn't trying to suggest you not do so. But at the same time, I have to question your last statement. What questions do you feel are not being answered? The only question...

WOW. That's an awesome room!

Wow, JNT. Got a dog in this fight somehow? :wink: Maybe it is because I use my HF beads in a cooler'dor and wine'idor and haven't had a true humidor in a few years, but I don't recharge my beads inside my humidors. I suppose it depends on how you keep your beads but most of mine are in mesh...

Aye, but the poll is 'what do you use', not 'which is better' isn't it? Figured that was what was meant by 'vs'. Either way, like I said, depends on the individual situation and application. Both have their positives and negatives.

Huh. I've never thought of this. I'm positive I've done this before. I don't slobber on the thing, but I always wet the wrapper before cutting. I'll have to keep this in mind when borrowing a cutter in the future.

I think you are trying to make this a 'better than' conversation when it doesn't need to be. Both HF and HCM have their own unique benefits. HCM supposedly holds much more moisture and reacts faster. Further, you can change the set point if you wish. HF has a visual clue and allows you to add...

Johnny 'O Lonsdale from sometime around '08.

To clarify even further, as the entire system (humidor environment) loses/gains moisture, the RH of both the environment, and therefor the beads drops/rises.

Assuming you meant dropping? Good point. Probably safer all around to do outside the humi.

Thought you would have JFire's. Excited to see how this plays out.

The bolded part is the key. If your RH starts dropping or goes below where you want it, pull out the beads, throw them in a bag with a sponge and wait for the RH to get to your set point. Or, and this is just a guess, so I'll wait for the expert to chime in, I would also assume you could just...

Mystery smoke and an ET lancero.

Wow. Have to say I'm happy about the lowered odds. I'm smoking #1 right now and I'm starting to think this was a good bet on your part.

Uhmmmm...yeah. I just want to apologize for not reading through the dang thread. Amazing what reading the whole thread can do for you, huh? I'm having flashbacks to that stupid test you get from a smartass teacher that has like 50 questions along with instructions to READ EVERYTHING BEFORE...

X2. That's the whole point of the Boveda system. Unless there is something wrong with them, it's not going to get too humid because the seal is too tight. If the seal is tight, that just means that the Boveda's will last longer and that they will hold the exact RH they are advertised as.

Yep, should be. How long were they in that environment before you smoked them?

Nice pick ups. Sorry to hear about the wallet pinch. Been there, many a time.
