Not sure, Xikar says you should so I did.

Thompsons says you should buy a crapload of their cigars.

So did you?

I knew nothing of their product and I damn sure wanted it to work. If a mechanic tells me to use ATF in my transmission, I am going to use it.

There is a line I draw and common sense comes into play so the question to your answer is no, I would not buy a ton of cigars from Thompsons.

WoW

I am trying to gift something away here to someone that can use it.

Guess thats how I am gonna get treated for trying to be a good BOTL.

I have a gel puck and use distiller water. I bought two bottles of the 50/50 as I dove in head first a few years ago. I used a quarter of a bottle.

I use beads for my humidors now. I still use the gel for a storage bin of boxes along with excess beads. I haven't had problems with it. I only had small issues with regulation when I used it in my first humidor. It would spike above 70% on the warmer days.

Good product, but there are better.

Good grief.
a) if your trusted mechanic tells you something, o.k. But any mechanic who is trying to sell you stuff? Sorry.
b) not sure what "common sense" you are referring to here
c) Sorry my ESP is in the repair shop so I could not read your mind that you were wanting to give something away.
