I think beads, regardless of manufacturer, might react faster than the boveda packs. Cigarnut can probably confirm if that is accurate or not.

I've personally not had much luck with mixed passive humidification systems. It's not that the humidor doesn't maintain humidity, it's just that in the end, only one of the elements does the work, the other just either dries out or gets overcharged.
