Humi Leak or Paranoia?

I'm also considering putting my humidor in a closet along with my room humidifier just so it can have a more humid place to live for the remainder of the cold season. Damn you cold Canadian weather! Hope this helps

Haha damn Canadian weather indeed! Thanks for the reply Myles! I'll probably just settle down with the OHD (Obsessive Humidity Disorder ) and just keep adding distilled water to the beads as needed for the remainder of the winter!

I've got about 2-3 times the required amount of beads so I'm good in that department
