Give it a week. The cigars/humidor combined will need time to stabilize. Besides, if your rh stays at 66% you're golden. I keep my stuff right around there and, to me, they smoke better than at the 70% range.
On another note, I could give a shit less if you post an intro, but if you do want to hang around and post, clean up your spelling/grammar/punctuation, etc.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Your sticks were probably a little dry. It should balance out.

When it starts to get hot out and my average indoor temp goes from 60-65 to 70-75, my humi climbs past 75% and eventually goes back down around 70%. The point is, the humidity will fluctuate whenever something changes. Open the lid, add a bundle of new cigars, take a few out for you and your friends, temperature, etc.

As was stated the humidor will jump around occasionally. The 65% that you have it at currently isn’t a bad thing either; I keep my smoking humidor around 67%.

Before too many people start this, I would suggest getting an introduction posted. While Hefty doesn't mind, I promise you that in the next day or two there will be the "great, who the fuck are you?" posts coming up.

On a side note, I have an iphone also and I've learned not to use it to post up on this forum. The people here are a great resource for information but have no tolerance for punctuation, grammar or spelling issues. Welcome to the boards, if you keep using your iphone, enjoy your stay.

You're failing miserably in your training......or maybe not.

Don't push your humidor. Pull it.

"Drunken Bop It" was a great game we used to play in college. There's some pass it around mode and when you screwed up had to do a shot.
