just to chime in, i had a 70 can cooler in my basement a long time ago filed with important papers and the basement flooded with 3 feet of water. needless to say the cooler actually floated! so all my paperwork was saved. so with that anyone want to test there coolidor in a pool...... hehehe :)

so do you spray the beads before you put them into there container or after? Plus i also heard that using gloves while handling the beads can help so that any germs/mold does not get transfered to the beads from your hands, not sure if that is over kill though.

Im ordering heartfelt right now. just found mold on my humidifier that came with the humidor. I'm not going to loose my little collecton! so this is good info!!!

this all sounds cool. I'm between 249 and 290 in cypress and could not find to many places over here, but at least those you all are mentioning are not to far away.

cool, I'm adding that one to my list. I'm still closer to serious cigars on 1960, but I love to drive around so I think I'll hit that place up in a few weeks...

yea that is what I was thinking. it just looks more classy, like cigar smoking is seen by most people, and going out tp the garage or basement to grab a few smokes from a cooler might make people wonder. This is why I grabbed a nice 100 count desktop humi and will not buy anymore, from now on...

no tupperware, that's why they are in zippies, and freezer ones at that so they are sealed up better. I'll check the water level in the bolw I put in there to give me an idea on how far it is along, it could need till next week to finish seasoning for all I know....

from what I read you hold a button for 5 sec and it self calibrates. that and them being round is why I'm looking at them.

I might just head to a B&M and snag a digital up so I can get this issue resolved. The analog that came with the box is probably not a good one, but either way right now I just don't have the cash to replace it myself cause I just blew what I had on the humi and 75 cigars. BTW they are pretty...

I got my fist humidor and all and the hygrometer that came with it is broken. A replacement is in route, but I have a Q. I started the seasoning on tuesday, and the replacement hygrometer will not be here to mid to late next week. Will it hurt the cigars if I put them in the humi now even though...

I take it by people responses that these are good hygrometers. I'm looking at the round one from Xikar, is it a good one to? thanks for helping a newb :-)
