KL does a great job of absorbing moisture, but unless you like your cigars at 50%, then you have a lot of work to do before KL will release moisture at a more desireable Rh for cigars.
I'm hearing the "look what you did you little jerk" from Uncle frank in "Home Alone." Definitely didn't mean to restart this thread I have read the whole article and every post in the thread and made up my mind. I won't say what that is though! not going to do anything to get this restarted
