Well it's been 10 days. I have scrubbed, washed out with rubbing alcohol and scrubbed again.
I can still see suspicous spots in the corners and on the bottom of the humi. As a atake a good close look I can see gaps - minor ones, but still gaps between the sides of the humi and thebottom of the humi. The hydrometer which displays out in front of the humi is a pop-in into the humi itself. All of this I am assuming is causing a loss of a perfect seal into the interior humi environment. Now whether this helps cause problems with mold or not, I have no idea, but does help me identify weak spots within the humi.
So, I am going to scrub again, completely dry out again and see where we are at that point, but I am not holding my breath, nor am I overly confident that the problem will be fixed. As a matter of fact I now totally distrust ths humi but we will see.
In the meanwhile my old humidor that holds 75-80 cigars that I got for christmas 2 years ago is still holding up without any noticeable problems, perfect humidity with re-fills needed every 2-4 months and a day or two of circulating air to keep humidity down (it tend to run high for about 3 days after a water refill). So my conclusion is that when I can I will simply go back to where this one was got and buy another one of these cheapies and break it in.
Thanks again for all the advice and suggesstions. I am still hopeful that this new humi can be fixed but going to take a long time if ever it is looking like.
