Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
I vote other. In my desktop I have Jars, in the cooler, I have HF 65% beads.
Loving both. |
Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
I use silica crystal kitty litter in my cooler. Works great for a fraction of the price of beads.

Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
I'm running a Hydra with 3 fans and some Heartfelt beads in my vinotemp, and some Heartfelt beads in my desktop...and some 60% beads in the little desktop that I use for pipe tobacco.

I have an Aristocrat M60 Plus with a "Set & Forget System" I feed it distilled water once a month. It's set for a constant 65% RH.

Kitty Litter is the only way to go to cut the cost of humidification and spend the money on the things that matter..... Like new sticks to fill humidor! :banger |

Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
2 of my humidors leak, so i need to re-charge my shilala beads fairly often. recharing the shilala beads take more time than recharing heartfelt because i can just spray some water on them. i have tried to rectify the leaks with foam seals and painters tape, so far nothing has helped. i have to recharge my current beads every week or 2.
one of the advantages on the shilala beads in very consistant rH, but I have not gotten that with my humidors (because of the leaks). so because of that im not even sure any beads will work. and im not able to buy better humidors at this point. |

Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
I use 65% HF beads in my desktop and edgestar, no complaints at all

Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
In my end table unit I use a combination of 65% HCM beads and a Cigar Oasis to auto recharge them. In my desktop I use 65% HCM beads.
Both work well for me. :tu |
Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
I've been using mostly boveda packs since the beginning of the year. In the last month or so I have switched to kitty litter and DW. But.. a couple of days ago I opened a box of portages salmons and saw... MOLD! It had just started but it was there. So... I tossed that KL into the trash and I am back on Boveda packs.

Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
KL in the vinodoor, footlocker humidor and cooler. All stay right at 63%.

Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
Kitty litter? Hey, if I want my sticks to taste like ammonia, I'll buy CCs. :confused:
Oh, you mean FRESH kitty litter. Nevermind. ;s |
Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
I use the oasis XL in my cabinet... it seems to work well. Now that the winter months are amongst us, we will see how well it holds up and may reevaluate if need be.
|
Re: What type of humidifier do you use?
Personally, in my cooler I use all of the above :)
I have two large jars and pucks that use PG, and I have two dry bags of 65% beads that I use to help prevent spikes in humidity. Overall, the only thing I'd change is that I'd switch to an active humidifier at some point when I get a new cabinet. |
