  • Wait, so you only need to respray the beads every month?!

    So when do you change the beads

  • soicuw - you recharge the beads when they are white instead of clear.

    The lifespan of humidification beads is not without limits. Research has shown that all silica gel will slowly lose its adsorption capacity. The natural presence of gaseous pollutants (like ammonia from cigars) will accelerate this process. However, the lifespan of silica gel can be considered roughly 10 years. You can continue to use the beads even longer, but their adsorption characteristics will be lower.

  • Beads have lasted pretty well. They would've went a week longer but since I was going to be away from home for awhile I went ahead and recharged them before Christmas.

    So if I hadn't of jumped the gun the original charge would've lasted two months which has exceeded my expectations. I will add one disclaimer. Here in the mid-atlantic its been a really mild winter so I haven't had my heat blasting on a regular basis yet.

  • Great info but DAMN DUDE!!! Get to the point please. It was GRUELING to stick with this to get the info. Be brief and succinct when you're doing instructional vids man. That said; still great info.

  • First of all, thanks a lot for the info in these vids. However, 35 minutes to show how to Winterize your humidor is a bit excessive don't you guys think? I enjoy the slow pace in the cigar review vids, but I agree that instructional vids should be more to the point. Keep in mind you're reaching a larger audience than your website fans. Keep up the good work.

see all
