Default Re: new humidor. will it leak? *pix*

In addition to what Bob posted, I would suggest that there's only one way to find out but sounds good.

Welcome to CA.

Assuming it doesn't have a glass top, turn on a flashlight, drop the light in and close the lid. In a dark room you shouldn't be able to see any light around the seal (or anywhere else for that matter).

While not seeing any light doesn't guarantee you won't have some leakage, if you do see light, ya got problems.

He means to try it out and see if it holds.

Welcome to the Asylum. And I have 2 humidors that do that, and they hold fine, so no worries. You should be okay as long as you are getting the whoosh.
