OK, last night when I went to refill my Puck with distilled water, I accidently grabbed the jug filled with the wife's home made detergent. I'm sure you can imagine my reaction when a glob of detergent landed in my beads.
Anyway, I now need a replacement humidification unit. I was looking at the 4oz 65% unit from Heartfelt (the one in ABS plastic that fits in the space on the lid). I know the beads are highly recommended. However, I was also shown a Xikar gel humidifier (70%) when I stopped at Puff 'n Stuff (Al, if you are reading this, I would have asked you these things if I thought about it before I left). Anyone ever use one of these? Can anyone recommend one over the other?
A little background: I don't regulate my humidor's humidity as much as I just try to keep it from losing humidity (an ongoing problem). I was thinking that even though the gel doesn't really absorb extra humidity (I read that in here somewhere), that's not really a problem in my case.
Xikar's instructions say to use a PG solution. Can I use distilled water instead (assuming it does not have detergent in it :angry: )?
Thanks in advance,
