They sound like desicant packs, but I am not sure.

yup, sounds like plain old packs of silica gel. Amount of water to add would be a guess at best.

Are they Bovea packs? Like this: http://www.cigarsolutions.com/bovedapacks.html
If so, I don't think they need any water added.

Is one side blue? Sound like water pillows from Cigars International. I think they had them. Did they come with little plastic sleeves to put the packet in when it's humidified?

 

[RonC]

if the packs have hard,small beads in them, then it is some type of silica gel pack. The bovedas have a jelly like feel to them, and it will say "Boveda" on the pack.

Those are them! Not the best to sleep on though, a bit damp.
