Converting Hydra LG to run on Beads

[jonumberone]

Steve, I recently had an insert built for my cab and I disconnected the fans so it would fit.
Out of laziness, I took my time getting them set up again. It was a big mistake as I had some fluctuation issues.
How many lbs of beads do you have?
I have 4 in mine and with the hydra I almost never have to charge them. (only once since August).
Perhaps you have a leak?
I recently put weather stripping around my door not because I had a leak but I was in the hardware store and it was $3.
It feels like the door seals tighter but I dont know if its working for sure.
If you have a leak, HCM beads will be just as much of a headache as your heartfelt beads.
You can also recharge your heartfelt beads the same way you would HCM beads, if that makes it easier for you.
Hope this helps, Bud

Actually I'm about 80% sure I have a leak... the weather stripping I bought was WAAAAAYYYYYYY too big and the door wouldn't even shut. I have ordered smaller weather stripping and it'll be here shortly, I'm going to take a look at it once I have the stripping in. I'm rocking 3.5 lbs of beads and .5 lb of HCM... I had the HCM in a humi I sold so, I just stuck them in there. I've had to recharge 4 times so far... almost 2 gal of water and I can't get the hydra to get an accurate reading its about 3 points too high at the lowest setting. I'll know more in a few days.

My Hydra is about 7 points off at the lowest setting.
I just ignore the gauge and set the hydra according to my correction.
Hydra set at 72 and my humi holds at 64 -65.
I have another pack of the weatherstripping I used.
I can send it to you if you want.
