I have a question here that concerns my 400+ count footlocker humidor. About 1 1/2 to 2 months ago, I purchased 3 plastic tubes with the beads in them from Viper to help regulate the humidity inside my humidor.
I noticed that each of the 3 plastic tubes which I purchased that are inside my humidor are giving off a faint "plastic" smell. The plastic tubes contain the beads inside of them and they have been inside my humidor now for over 1 1/2 to 2 months. The plastic smell doesn't smell that bad, but it is present inside my humidor and it's coming from the plastic tubes.
Does anybody else in here who has these plastic tubes with the beads in them inside their humidor also have this "plastic" smell coming from the plastic tubes? Is this smell going to get inside my cigars and ruin them?
I was told by Viper that the smell goes away after 6 months or so. Do you think that my cigars will taste okay with the plastic smell that the tubes are giving off inside my humidor? I am unable to place the beads in any other type of container because there is very limited space in my 400+ count footlocker humidor and because the humidor is filled to the top with boxes full of cigars. I keep the lid of each box of cigars open about a 1/4" inch in order to allow the humidity inside the humidor to circulate inside each cigar box.
I want to be able to keep the beads inside each of the 3 plastic tubes because of the limited and tight space in my humidor. I would like to know if it's going to be safe for the plastic tubes with the beads inside them to remain inside my humidor even though they are giving off a faint plastic smell?
This faint plastic smell isn't going to get on my cigars and ruin them, is it?
Viper told me to not worry about it and that the plastic smell from the tubes will eventually go away with time.
I am only worried about this because I noticed that the plastic smell from the plastic tubes that I'm currently smelling inside my humidor smells close to the same strength as it did since the first day that I placed them inside my humidor. Is this anything to worry about? I have 3 boxes of naked Padrons inside this humidor with 6 other boxes of different cigars and I don't want them to get ruined from this faint plastic smell that's coming from the plastic tubes that contain the beads inside them.
Your input on this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
