Humidor problems

[clarko]

So I returned the Thompsons humidor, after I smoked 5 of the 10 included cigars, they took off the $7.50 for shipping + about $9-10 for the cigars, which was more than I expected them to. anyway. I got that capri humidor from famous smokes. same problem really. I have put in a digital hygrometer filled their humidifier, put in my credo humidifier, + a small dish of distilled water, and still haven't gotten the humidity in it over 66%. ???

Maybe those beads are the only way to go with these cheap humidors?
I decided against the cooler/tupperware idea for now but i think i'll experiment with that, too...

Maybe it's the change in the weather. The hygrometer is now showing 73% , fairly stable. Seems better.
I may just have to leave that dish of distilled water in there full time.
