• BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    Spilled Beads

    i agree with you. I'm still don't know if I buy that the chemical can be "washed" away for just the reason you stated. but i know mine were messed up when I immersed them, and just wanted to warn yins. :)

    Spilled Beads

    well, the chemical part I have heard from the vendors mouths, well fingers. Otherwise they'd just be regular silica beads. The chemical is what allows them to release at the humidity set points. Now what chemical it actually is is guarded in a veil of secrecy, or they aren't privy to that...

    Spilled Beads

    from nowhere reputable, i.e. one of the vendors of the RHbeads, but a few people on another cigar board suggested to me that this was possible and it made sense based on the recent trouble i had after I washed my beads that had fallen and been recollected from the carpet.

    Spilled Beads

    i'd recommend against washing or soaking them. i was told that this might have caused my recent bead troubles (not releasing humidity) because it could have washed away the chemical that regulates the "set and forget" point of your beads. i couldn't verify this, but i'm not gonna take the...

    Weird Question

    don't wanna scare ya, but i've had some "broken" beads as well. I had a tube that just simply quit releasing water / humidity. I tried everything from a hair drier, a stove, to leaving them outside for a day. Nothing. I had to chuck em. Hope this didn't happen to you. (and no I didn't...

    Baltimore

    weird. maybe their bound by some other rule since they're kinda attached to ruth's chris or maybe make most of their money by alcohol sales? I think you have to make like 15% of your income from tobacco to be able to claim an exemption from the ban.

    Broken Beads?

    Not cracked,although some of them are. Here's my issue. I keep my RH beads in a tube from wrapped in pantyhose (so the bead dust doesn't fall out everywhere) and it looked like some of them were starting to get brown. In the process of transferring the beads to a bowl, I dropped them all on...
