I think you have to see if the environment the beads are in is too dry.. Also look at the beads.. if they look dry, it means they don't have any water to let moisture out..

Coolers have nothing to absorb and hold moisture.. So if you put cigars and beads in there straight, unless you have the cooler packed with smokes, the RH is likely to drop..

I recommend to start off with, you fill that sucker up with empty cigar boxes, take a damp cloth over the wood, and let it sit in there for a bit.. And put a dish with distilled water and sponge in there.. the wood will help absorb the moisture..
