Sorry guys, been a little busy lately. I got the package on Friday everything looked good. I chose the cigars I am going to take and have inserted my puts. I had to talk it over with Dan, you know just to make sure that I was being fair with what I was taking and putting. I will send the package out this week after the holiday. Also, I think the beads are dried out, but not sure. Everything I have read about beads, says that if they turn white they need to be wetted again. Now how do I go abouts wetting them? Also, when I lifted up the tube the beads rattled inside it. Is this normal? If so will send it out as soon as possible, but if not let me know how to correct this issue. I have a bottle of 50/50 solution and a bottle of distilled water.
Once again sorry about the delay.
Normally you would just add distilled water til 60-70% of the beads are clear. With this package travelling cross country, in my opinon you might want to add distilled water until 70-85% of them are clear. That would leave you with 15-30% of the beads available to absorb any increase in humidty, which I doubt will happen.Quote:
