Anything above 55% smokes fine for me.

I would have to agree and say that a good use for it would be calibrating a new hygrometer. Open it, put it in a ziplock bag with the new hygrometer and let it sit for a half day sealed. Calibrate it off of that. Works a lot better than the old salt test.

Keep it half-open? Why not completely sealed?

Agreed. I actually keep most items at around 60 on most things I am smoking. Most the Juan lopez I have smoked seem wet even at 60 and seem to smoke better at less then this.
