If it has a glass top, maybe 72%. It depends if you live in a wet or dry climate. Go to the Boveda YouTube channel and watch some of their education videos where they discuss selecting the proper humidity level. A Boveda won’t go much over their stated RH level. They will go under if your humidor is leaky or in a very dry climate.
Thanks Watchman. The Boveda humidor I've ordered comes with Boveda packs in it. I'm not experienced enough to have a preference regarding RH yet so will follow the instructions and see how it goes. I just want the cigars to stay in good condition for several weeks without being checked up on.
