Yes and no. Probably 150 cigars as the humidification devices take up the rest. The seal appears and feels tight. Digital Adorini hygrometer that did not require calibration. Seasoned for 10 days and I've had it for around two months. Thanks for your help!

Take the cigars out and put them in a zip lock bag. Take the humidor in to a very dark room and place a flashlight in it. Turn the flashlight on and close the lid. I'm betting that it leaks light like a sieve. If the humidor is new, take it back and get something that will maintain humidity and has a seal (or walrus, your choice).

One humi pack should more than cover a 250 count, unless the sticks are bone dry or the walrus isn't working.

I learned quick that such statements shouldn't be taken at face value. I have a Xikar.digital hygro that claimed to not need calibration and to be +/-2% out of the box, but ended up being -6% when I went to test and calibrate it. You can never be too sure with things like that.

Also, do you open the humi often? You may want to start a smaller tupperdor or something where you put sticks you plan to smoke soon, so that you don't need to open your big humi as often.

I'm guessing the bead system that came with it, isn't rH or HCM beads.

You can never have too many cigars, they are like an investment in good times.
