It will never go away from here on out. BEADS my friend, beads...and not those HCM beads, either.
Good old fashion clear heartfelts. Or some of that gel stuff.

What's wrong with HCM beads?

I've never heard an ill word about HCM beads, as far as Gel goes:

I currently have one in my desktop and plan on throwing it out as soon as I can get the boss to approve the purchase of a pound or so of beads for it and the coolidor.

HCM beads or standard white RH beads. Cigarmoney.com ( thats N2Adventre's website ) has great shipping and good prices on beads.

I promised myself I would not ever go into it in the open forum, because the man once associated with
them is a friend. I no longer use or recommend them. I got some free, or in trade rather, and do not
have a single positive thing to say about them. I also should have said I never used Gel either, but
the concept seems solid. If people say two thumbs down, I will defer to experience.

So I found a couple specks resembling mold on my sponges this weekend also.
I tossed all of my sponges right away, drove around looking for a B&M that had some other form of humidification and grabbed these, sounds like I will need to upgrade to beads eventually:

This PhD (portable humidification device) is charged with a unique HYDRO-GEL which will absorb up o 400 times its weight in fluid. This device will achieve maximun moisture output and absorption to regulate humidification perfect. Our propietary anti-fungal/anti mold formula eliminates peaks and valleys in humidity and mantains a precise 70% levels . This 4 oz PhD will humidify 50-100 cigars with zero chance of over-humidification. Regulates Humidity to 70% RH.

I talked to RonC, I'm hoping the stuff her sold me will workout. New pucks with humidor solution rather the distilled water and regulating packets.
