65% beads in mine so the RH remains rock solid day in and day out, temp is a constant worry for me though, as there is no AC where I live and temps range in the uper 70s and 80s most days. No problems yet though and my sticks all smoke great.

I keep my cooler at 70 for aging. I only smoke directly out of my desktop which has 70% beads but stays 63-67 in fall/spring/winter. Will need to get a tube of 65 beads for next summer.

I keep mine between 62-65% RH. If they are a little too moist for my liking, I'll dry box for a day ot two.

So, is it a problem if I keep mine at 80% and 80degrees?

I keep everything at 65% That's the beauty of beads.

65% here. I could swear I bought 70% beads but they hold quite well at 65. Go figure.

I usually have mine at 70% but I just got some beads that will make it drop to 65%...either way it will be something new. I will learn whether I like it or not. If not I will just fix the beads

Coolerdor (long term) @ 70% and humidor at 67% - both with Cigar Oasis units so I don't have to worry about them when I travel.

Set and Forget comes on at 63% and takes it to 65%, so somewhere between that
