Interesting. I would be very curious to see if you can condition these your self. It gets rather expensive buying pounds of beads at a time for cabinet humidors.

Snuck back in!
So far all I can find on conditioning these is to mist them with water, let it absorb, then stir it around. repeat until they maintain the RH in their container at whatever you want. Does this sound right? Anybody got a link to more detailed instructions? I found this on a site about preserving art in museums.
Hugh?Call me George!Huh?
Van55 has written extensively about this subject over at CigarWise.com.
There is a "sticky"/ pinned thread in the Cigar Education forum which has all the information:

Thanks Hugh!
That's basically all the info I could find on another board.
Place the litter in a container ( 1 pound per 5 cubic feet of humidor ) with a small bowl of water and a hygro. When the rh reaches the desired rh%, maintain that for 2 weeks and the crystals are done. I guess they actually retain a memory (?).
When rh begins to drop below 65% it's time to recondition them.
Simple. Cheap. I love it!
PLUS! Thanks again Hugh! Now I'm a member of Cigar WIse!
Snuck back in!
Cheers for the link.
