I have the 65% beads and in the spring and fall they stay consisently between 64 and 66%. Summer between 68 and 70 due to the humidity in the air, and winter 62 to 64% because if the dryness inthe air. Humidors don't have a perfect seal nor should they. The air has to breath a little, and the dry air in the winter will leach out more humidity. A humidifier in the room will help. It also depends on the temperature of the room.
Maybe not . Do the dollar test , if you humi. fails , you can run scotch tape the length of your seal . that should do it . If not its time for a new box . Cheers
I had the 70% in my 150ct which also didnt have a great seal and they kept it @ a steady 67% which is actually where I wanted it.
I have a 150 ct. Humidor with 65% conservagel beads. I bought a pound and it says a recommended 3 oz. for every 50 cigars. How many beads do you use in your 50 count? Because I thought that 16 oz. is 1 pound right? So I should be using 9 oz. of beads which is a little more then half... and it just didn't seem correct considering they say you can use a pound or so of beads for your cooladors, which in my opinion is alot larger space... Is 9 oz. good for 150 ct. humi??!?!

I'm not sure of the weight of beads I had in my 150ct tho if I had to guess I'd say no more than 4oz. I simply bought the round discs full of beads and used their recommended sq footage and like laker said I doubled the recommendation. For my cooler I was using a full pound which was more than enough. Thats the beauty of beads you're not going to over humidify unless you really mess up the charging.
