The weather stripping that I used is made out of foam rubber and it's white in color. It is the peel and stick type of weather stripping that's made for windows and doors. I looked all over Lowe's for weahter stripping and this type of weather stripping is the most common and the only type of...

I took the humi tubes out of my humidor and I then aired out the humidor for about 1 1/2 hours. I then put weather stripping around the seam of the lid. I haven't gone back to my office yet to check out and see what the humidity level is inside my humidor after putting the weather stripping on...

Jim, Do you have the red end caps on the humi tubes that you are using inside your humidor? If so, do you have any plastic odor coming from the red end caps. I have the red end cap humi tubes and the red ones give off a strong plastic odor. I currently took all of the humi tubes and all of my...

I wasn't thinking of keeping the humidor open overnight or anything like that when airing it out. Instead, I was thinking about airing it out for only a few hours (3 or 4 hours at the most). Then, I would recharge the 2 humistats that go on the inside of the lid again and put all the cigar boxes...

What worries me now is that I don't know how much damage has already been done to all of my cigars from the plastic odor that all 6 red end caps from the humi tubes emitted out for the last 2 months while they were inside my humidor. I have over $1,000 worth of cigars inside this particular...

I just ordered 1 1/2 lbs of brand new 70% beads and a few of the white bean storage bags from Viper (1 large bag and 2 smaller bags). I am going to take out all 3 of the plastic humi tubes that are currently inside my humidor and replace them with the new 70% beads and the bags. I requested...

The beads are really useful. I like them a lot. The problem is that I have a large capacity 400 count humidor and I need 3 times the amount of beads to keep the humidity level at 70%. And because of this, I need 3 humi tubes inside my humidor instead on only 1 humi tube. And because I have 3...

My post is below

You do not understand something here. I do NOT have any room to place a mesh bag or pantyhose full of Viper's beads in a small dish inside my humidor. I can only use the thin plastic tubes that I purchased from Viper. Space is very tight inside my humidor. I am lucky to even be able to fit 3 of...

There is another problem that I am also having here: I noticed a strong "plastic" odor that's coming from all 3 of the 4 ounce Viper humidification tubes that are sitting inside my 400+ count footlocker style humidor. The plastic odor smell was kind of strong when I took a whiff inside the...

UPDATE: The last time that I recharged the beads and the humistats was over 5 days ago. I go to my office today and when I checked the humidity level is was only at 62%. I ended up recharging the beads again. This time around, I opened both ends of each plastic tube and poured a small amount of...

I've read all of the links that you posted above, but none of them talk about putting weather stripping around the seam between the lid where it closes on top of the humidor.

If this is true, then WHY aren't there any directions that tell us to do that on the himipack? This is the first time that I heard about this.

Thank you KayakinBoy. That's what I though too.

What can I do to improve the seal on my footlocker humidor? The humidity level goes down to the 60%-63% mark about every 5 to 7 days every time after I recharge the 70% beads and the humistats. This problem has been happening ever since the colder weather started up here in New England. I am...

What can I do to improve the seal on my footlocker humidor? The humidity level goes down to the 60%-63% mark about every 5 to 7 days after recharging the beads and the humistats. I want to correct this problem by trying to put something around the lid's seal. What can I use to "wrap" around the...

I don't know yet, but I have my eyes on: Padron 1926 Series #35 Maduro Padron 1926 Series #6 Maduro Arturo Fuente Anejo #55 Maduro Arturo Fuente 858 Maduro

Will the humipack ruin anything if I just leave it inside the full box of Anejo cigars? I ALSO have 3 of the 4 oz. tubes of the 70% beads inside the humidor. The humipack is located inside the full box of Arturo Fuente Anejo cigars. It's sitting on top of the cigars. You don't think that the...
