wow how did it get so hot ?

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

It didn't.

The Hygroset is all whacked out. :r

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

great work maintaining the RH brother :tu :r

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

I like to put my cigars in the oven for storage too.:D

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

No- they're all fried!

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

I get worried when temps go north of 70*.

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

I'd be worried... sorry brother!!

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

So pushing the melting point of tin could be a problem? :r

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

oh right lol its still a lol dry for my tastes tho i like 70rh lol

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

I have the same one.

Mine was defective from the get-go. Worked once after salt testing, and hasn't worked since.

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

i think that may be a sign that the salt test kills them maybe ? :2

You will get crazy readings like that when the battery is going dead. At least that's been my experience.

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

Mine took a spill, the battery fell out and it has been stuck at 180 degrees since. The RH seems to still be correct, which is good enough for a travel humi.

I've got 4 hygrosets and they have all been great, first one I've had any issue with. Just thought i'd it post since it is pretty freaking funny.

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

:hm Good call, I'll try a different battery in it. :tu

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

I think that you should be incredibly worried about them and send all your sticks to the first newbie who posts that you should send them to him for inspection and/or destruction. After all, such imaginative and unique suggestions should be rewarded. :tu

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

I would double check all temp guages if it is accurate the beetles can hatch at over 75 F. That's my understanding.

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

:r:r

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

I wouldn't worry too much. I'm pretty sure by the time you get to 183F, any beetles would have melted. Or popped. :D

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

LOL... I just saw the temp... I missed the 1

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

Keep this going up and you won`t have to light them anymore:)

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

I would worry about having to smoke with oven mitts!!! :r

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

At 180 F all the beetles cooked in their own juices...then exploded! :r

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

Does that mean its an infused stick at that point?

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

Ewwww!!! Beetlejuice!!!

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

I always worry about The Beatles......

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

Possibly. :r

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

"cooked in their own juices"- looks like a menu item I saw recently!

Re: Should I be worried about beetles?
 

Hell, i'll offer my services to inspect your collection for beetles, i believe my newbiness qualifies. I will very scientifically go through them and sample a proper ration to ensure that the stash is safe, and will return said stash with remains...i mean results of tested cigars for your piece of mind that you have no infestation worries.....LOL


Other than the humor, i haven't a friggen clue as to the status of your stash, but i'm learning form others responses in case i ever have a meltdown. Good news is i won't be out that much if my stash melts down, so i'm cool.
