What to do about my smokes - dry!!

It's important when you get a cooler to check it very carefully for holes in the plastic, I found one when I bought mine, covered it with duct tape, and it holds great humidity. Maybe try the flashlight test?

I have not had to recharge the beads in my cooler since I bought it a year ago.

This is the key with any humidor and humidification device -- the humidor (coolidor) must have a good seal. Once you have that then any of the humification devices out there will work better. Naturally, Shilala's beads work best
