So anyone know where you can get just the tubes? I've been kicking around the idea on getting some beads but would rather buy a pound or so and pick up the tubes seperately. I'v been to home art supply shops and they just look at me funny when I start asking about PG, or perforated tubes and the like.
Also I saw viper had bought his beads in bulk, he said they use them for art storage. Anyone know where you can get these in bulk?
You can buy the empty tubes from Viper - CLICK HERE
Thanks, Whenever I went to his site I always got the old site, not the store you sent the link to. Thanks GF
Sweet. All set. I decided to stop wasting time and got all the tubes and beads I need from heartfelt industries.
What type of humidification system are you using now? How many humidors do you have if you're buying all those tubes? Wow :smiley2:
I recently purchased his aluminum rectangular humidifier with the 65% beads and I'm VERY impressed. Keeps the humidity at a stable 65% and it's very low maintenance.
Be sure to buy a small spray bottle. Comes in handy when you need to recharge the beads.
Or if you have a cooler, keeping a cup of distilled water inside the cooler works too. The beads absorb the necessary moisture they need.
Congrats on the new purchase, you won't be disappointed.

I usually keep them at around 65%. I also tried the gel in the jar stuff a while back, it was ok but kept the humidity to high. I still use the gel in the jar in the cooler in the basement because the temp down there coupled with the jar seem to keep a very constant RH of 70%. Generally, I will then take 5 or 6 cigars at a time and move them to a desk top to come down a little before I smoke them. So I got three 1-ounce tubes for my two larger desk tops and my fathers, two 1/2 oz tubes for my office humidor and I go my father the same office humidor for christmas so I got a tube for that one also. And I am thinking of building a second cooler for the cigars that do better at a lower RH, like perdomo's and certain ISOM's and use the remaining beads there.
Also, will do on the spray bottle.
