Humidity surprise...Question.
Now I love experimenting with hygrometers and humidifiers. I have proven to my self that none of the analog hygrometers generally available come close to the dependable accuracy of a digital. So, all of mine are digital.
As far as humidifiers I only use swelly gel types and a few Boveda 69% humi packs.
The types and numbers of gel packs and meters has not changed in a couple of months, and everything was stable.
Here is the surprise. I got very very low on cigars and stalked CBid like a starving bear and made a large purchase (stole most of it) to re-stock before I had to beg.
I normally remove the cello, but in order to get the new cigars in a humidor as quick and as neat as possible I left the cello on. I was going to attend to the cello on a rather leisurely pace. Now, after 2 days the hygrometers have shot up way higher then when the humidors were filled with non-cello cigars. All the folks that keep the cello on say the wrappers allow moisture to penetrate. Since I have no experience with cello wrapped cigars I don't have a clue as to why the humidity reads so much higher.
Anyone?

I am more curious then concerned and at this time I am going to let them sit in cello for a few weeks and see what happens.
Have to be a really big dog..
I'd say it's our change in weather.

On another note, did you get that Scout? MCN is about to do an eval, I think.
Anyone here know Algonquian? I specifically need a Siksikiwa word for "Scout"; or if there is no such word, translation for "red horse" or for "goes ahead". Can't get anyone at tribal HQ to answer the phone or return a call.
Almost the first thing that comes to mind...except in this case it would involve 4 hygrometers, two of which have been changed out.
