You're welcome, Mickey.
I noticed I didn't mention trying to give the unit headspace. I don't know how your humi is arranged but if it has some room above it that helps a lot. You want it on the bottom and against a side, btw. If it's got more room on the next shelf up, don't be afraid to set it up on that level.

I have it on the bottom left right now and like I said it seems to be doing well, but it's empty.....so I will look at it more tomorrow when I plan on filling it, it's been seasoning since Monday.

They throw out a crazy amount of water, Mickey. They'll overcome damn near any amount of leaky humidor. They're like the industrial size of cabinet humi humidifiers. I think you'll be pleased.
Just don't expect it to deliver a super steady RH %age like beads in a little box. They don't do that, they work "across a range". That range adds up to perfect, but in a wobbly, up and down, all over fashion. You're shooting for a good average RH with this thing, and it'll do just that.
Who cares how ya get it done just as long as it's right, right?

I agree with Scott as mine does just that! I put a 1lb bag of beads on each of my shelves and that helps greatly in maintaining a more even RH.

Post a pic once you fill it. Cuz you know what would happen if the pics showed it empty!!

All kidding aside, Have fun filling it up cuz I know I had fun filling mine!

A pound on each shelf? That sounds like overkill.

Nah. Just helps the RH rebound quicker.
