Took out the crystals and left humi open and its back down to about 70%. Going to get Boveda packs tonight I think. Thanks
The same thing happened to me with a Xikar humi-brick, so I used a Boveda pack I had laying around and ordered some 65% RH beads from Heartfelt; they should be here today.

I use a Boveda pack in my xikar travel humidor and it works great. Would recommend it for that type of application. No maintenance.

For short term storage, Boveda packs are great. For longer term Heartfelt beads are great, been using them for almost 3 years without issue.
