Re: Anyone tried Aqua Gems?

Well I am pretty sure that most of the guys who supply beads do not actually make them, as they probably buy the beads from dow, basf or some other large firm who produces these types of polymers or who holds the patents. Also any of these products release and absorb moisture. I imagine that they do it at varying rates, foam being the lowest and beads having varying degrees closer to what a humidor needs. Also with the amount of beads I got they could die after two uses and I would still have 4years wort of beads.
salve: I got the clear beads figuring that maybe the colored ones might have something more that I don't want in my cigars.
Might be a mistake but I figured they would be an upgrade from foam and as I just found this forum and read about the puckifier, and RH beads. These things look really similar and I could throw some dry beads in there to suck up moisture, I am also thinking I can tweak the humidity by adding or subtracting beads.
