No....what do you mean by blowing the air out?

you need to bleed the air out of the lighter every time before you refill.......


and as stated...62-65%rh is where you want to be....

Excellent, thank you! Now the seemingly easier question. Is there an effective way to know when the lighter is full?

not really. My torch is pretty good. When it is fill it doesn't spit or spatter so I generally just fill for a while than stop. Some lighters back up on you and do the spit/spatter thing. Then you know it's full. If it doesn't then just go by feel.

65% is where you want to be. Keeping it at 70% is just to high and during a really hot day it could jump up to the point of causing serious problems.

you can balance the RH yourself but the beads are cheap compaired to your investment in cigars so take the easy route and get some beads.

My extra-sensing ESP is telling me you don't have a see-through gauge. Only way I would tell is when there might be spray-back. But there are guys on this board far more knowledgeable than I...
