Heartfelt beads help please

I added even more distilled water to the beads to see if that helps out at all. I'm hoping it does. Also, i put an extra humidifier in there to try to help get the humidity back up.

I don't really have a way to test outside humidity as the hydrometer is part of the humidor and if i take it out there will be a gaping hole in the box. I know this isn't a really good indication, but for what its worth, its been pretty humid feeling up here in central New York. in the couple of minutes i had the box open, I noticed the humidity reading dropped from around 60% to 50%,

Thanks for the help so far. I'll keep you updated on my progress.

I just found this out last week but the humidity level is shown when you look up your zip or city on weather.com
