My coolerdor humidity

[Not A Nice Person]

I use beads and don't even HAVE a hygrometer in my humi. Use a calibrated humidity product and it's a moot point . . . in the end, trust what your cigars SMOKE like, not some arbitrary number.

Ok I will definitely put some in there.
I have the sensor for the hygrometer rigged up so that it would be sort of a big ordeal to get it undone. I will take it out if i have to, but is it worth it to salt test it. Could it be that far off?

yes

I'm planning to get beads, but for a 16 quart cooler what size should I use and what % do I want? A link to certain ones would be appreciated.
By the way, thank all of you for the help. It really helps and I appreciate it.

Good vendor. He'll take care of you. Amount wise, go by the recommendations on the site. % is a matter of choice, but most people like how cigars smoke at 65% the best.

Nope, looks broke. Just google "Heartfelt Beads."

awesome thank you. Also, I has three cigars in there now, but how long should it take to stablize?

Did you say 3 cigars or 3 boxes?

Put more stogies in there. The beads will help you once you get them. Go to a cigar shop and pick up a couple of empty wooden boxes.

Have patience, it's hard to tell as you are dealing with a cooler not a humidor.

You know...After all of this, it almost seems more worth it to just buy a real humi.
