Surprise Humi Gift - Page 2

It's about 6 months past my birthday, but today I got a present from one of my Aunts. She heard I had taken up cigars and decided I needed a humidor. I'm quite impressed with it so far in terms of fit and finish. It's the same one seen here on CheapHumidors, but from amazon. Says it holds 100, but I know that doesn't mean it will. Has a nice woosh and solid thunk when it closes.

I've got the hydrometer in a bag to test it, and then I'll be adjusting it to make it accurate. I know everyone says they aren't reliable, is that because they stop working or they simply aren't calibrated properly?

Also, I'm planning on not using the humidifier that came with it, but I'm a bit lost on which route to go, there are beads, and the "crystal" things, are they all they cracked up to be?
