Too many beads?

[N2Advnture]

The more RH Beads you have helps the RH to recover quicker and reduces the frequency between needing to add distilled water.

You can't have too many RH Beads.

Just don't over saturate them with water, there should be ZERO standing water on them. There should be approximately 20-30% of them dry.

I hope this helps

Excellent -- thanks all. I'll tell him not to worry.

I use just a bit over 1/2 lb. per 120 quart cooler and get along fine in very dry Wyoming. I set a little bowl in each cooler and put distilled water in them. Don't spray beads anymore and both coolers hold right at 65-66% (depending on whether the fan is on or off.)

Good info Mark.
When I first started with beads (I"M A BEAD NEWBIE) I wet them all and let them drain in the dish rack. I put them in and was wondering why the RH stayed so high for so very long.

Ya need empty beads for it to work...
YES!!
Thank You
