Shilala Beads

Just ordered some beads. I have HF beads in my humi's now so I will do a comparison for anyone who is interested.

I will be ordering some as well. This thread has sold me. Also I am having with the heartfelt beads. If I have the vino upstairs they can't get the humidity high enough and if I put it in the basement where it's more humid it can't get it down low enough and I'm tired of screwing with them.

I certainly would be.

Because this happens to me....


_____they can't get the humidity high enough (in the winter for me)and if I put it in the basement where it's more humid it can't get it down low enough(in the summer)______


For me though if I put my coolerdors in "body bag" type garbage bags that does solve it. Of course I'd rather not deal with it.

I will also say that the HF beads when I bought them were the best thing available. I have not tried Shilala's beads so I can't comment on them.

Yeah-- I have a vinotemp, a large desktop and a avanti compressor based dorm fridge. I had to unplug the avanti, but the humidity is steady in it now that it is not running. Problem is that the cigars are over 76 sometimes--no beetles yet though.
The vinotemp is okay, but it has wild swings when my office gets hot. I'm hoping the shila beads help this one. The desktop cabinet has a cigar oasis in it that works pretty well, but those cigars get warm as well.
