Ok, I did the salt test pnoon and it came back with 71 and I know it is supposed to be at 75%. Well I put the hygro in the cooler with the beads and a day later it reported back 65%, and that is what the beads are. SO maybe I under/over saturated the salt in the salt test and it didn't come back with a good reading. I did it in a tupperware container too. So maybe I didn't give it enough time to acclimate? I have it 12hrs.

Reason I think the hygro is on point is because the beads are 65% and I got 65% in the cooler. Ya know?

Its been sitting for 24 hours. Tomorrow I"ll put the cigars in there and see what happens from there.
