Those are the ones we sell at the shop for $1.00 each. To me they seem cheap...not sure how well they work.

I always buy the Boveda packs. I'll pay a few dollars more for something I know works.

I use those bill on trips in my traveldor for the fact that they are cheap and I don't care if i lose them.

Only thing to remember is that those unlike the boveda packs don't regulate humidity iirc. Good for trips or mailing sticks.

They most certainly are cheap, on the pocketbook not how they are made, and are most effective. I have used water pillows, the same ones, for years. One, just one, of those small water pillows is perfect for large coolers. I check the pillow in my coolers every 3-4 months add a little dist. water. They say it lasts only so long but I have pillows that are years old and work just fine.

IMO, they work too well to ship cigars with one unless it will be in transit a month or more. Everytime I have gotten cigars with a pillow inside, the cigars are way too wet and need to dry out for a few weeks before they can be smoked.

I use the pet store water pillows for shipping and they seem to work well short term. Never tried them long term which I have done with ones picked up at Two Guys in NH.
