Okay so... I obtained my first humidor back in the beginning of February and soon after I had to upgrade to a larger size. When I did this I went with a Xikar 50ct Humidifier because since the beginning I've heard that crystal humidifiers are the way to go, and my cousin's husband who has been smoking for quite a while raves about them (specifically Xikar) all the time.

I'm not sure just where my problem is, if its in the Xikar or if its with the humidor itself. I've been unable to keep a solid 70%Rh like I'm told Xikar humidifiers do without fail. My hydrometer reads 11% lower than what the actual Rh% is (I've done the salt test to verify this).

I'm unsure about where the problem resides because my humidor has a glass top (its actually plexi-glass or some sort of plastic... I was unaware of this till I got home and took it out of the box). I would think that the glass/plexi-glass top would cause a problem because it could make the temperature inside the humidor change constantly which may affect the Rh constantly. If this is the case I would rather just return it and get a regular one but if THATS not it... than the only other thing I can think it would be is the humidifier...

Just looking for some input/opinions and any past experiences with the clear top humidors. Hope this entry wasn't too scatter brained and someone can help. Thanks everyone!]]> Sun, 07 Mar 2010 16:20:20 +0000 http://www.cigarpass.com/forums/topic/63525-humidor-input-and-help/ http://www.cigarpass.com/forums/topic/63503-aristocrat-m-plus-25d/

All I have to do now is pick the woods, make a phone call, and tear my hair out waiting for it for 6 weeks!

Edit to add: Changed to an M Plus-25D, omg it's even BIGGER!]]> Fri, 05 Mar 2010 22:56:29 +0000 http://www.cigarpass.com/forums/topic/63503-aristocrat-m-plus-25d/ http://www.cigarpass.com/forums/topic/63495-need-help/ Fri, 05 Mar 2010 17:28:44 +0000 http://www.cigarpass.com/forums/topic/63495-need-help/ http://www.cigarpass.com/forums/topic/63409-storm-shelter-for-cigars/ Sat, 27 Feb 2010 13:09:58 +0000 http://www.cigarpass.com/forums/topic/63409-storm-shelter-for-cigars/ http://www.cigarpass.com/forums/topic/63369-haier-18-bottle-dual-zone-wine-cooler-refurbished/

Can one use them as your only humidfication source? Or should you used them in conjunction with something? I only ask because I see conflicting statements. I have a 100 count I keep at home, and I have a 10-15 count that I have outgrown (it was my first), although was planning on re-seasoning and keeping at my office desk. They seemed simple to use and wa wondering if they work as claimed (maintaining RH without to much fluctuation). Thanks.
