Default Re: Humidification Beads FAQs

Quote:
A larger percentage of the [RH Beads] turn translucent after my indirect recharge method; whereas the [competitor's beads] seem to have a higher percentage remain opaque. To me this observed change indicates the [RH Beads] absorb more/better. Some of the [RH Beads] do turn transparent like the [competitor's beads], just a much lower percentage; perhaps the [RH Beads] do better with direct addition of water. ..
All beads are definitely not created equally. The RH Beads perform better (more efficiently) in the RH range that we store our cigars (60-70% range) where as others perform better outside of that range (see "hysteresis curve").

It should be noted that the RH Beads also cost nearly 2x as much as other beads as well. ("You get what you pay for" applies here)

I hope this helps
