Default Re: On the last straw with my humidors

I just went through something like this with my 2 glass top ones. I recalibrated my digital hygrometers using small 72% Boveda packs and replaced the batteries. Then recharged my humidors by lightly wiping them down then a small bowl of distilled water went in for 12 days. One held perfectly the other dropped into the low 60's high 50's. The one that dropped I was using a Crystal Gel Humidity Bead Jar. I threw a 75% Boveda pack in it and we are now on target at around 68-70% (I really think it needs a another one). I have tried every freaking humidity divice trying to find the right ones. As others will tell you here, Beads and Boveda packs are the way to go! Don't let it get you down! It drove me nuts and almost ruined the hobby for me. Like chaase321 mentioned, go with plastic. I have a lot stored in tupperware. Doesn't look too pretty but no muss and definitely no fuss!
