At 82% humidity all that you will achieve is making the outside of your cigars soggy and slower burning than the inner parts which will be still dry and burn too quickly. Also, at that level of humidty, mold will grow very quickly and ruin your whole stash of cigars. As Hugh Jordan said, test your hygrometer to be sure that the 82% is accurate, then leave the box open for a while to get most of the moisture out and start over. Slowly bring the humidity back to 70%. Then put your cigars back in and let them sit for a while so they are balanced again.
