Quality Importers Cigar Caddy Crystal Humidifier, Large Crystal Gel Reviews
Came with no instructions as to the amount of glycol to fill, and the magnetic tape was missing from box. By the way the box say instructions are enclosed.I charged the crystals with distilled water. There are no instructions in the box, but for me it took about 45 minutes. Tested over several days in a sealed container and it consistently hit 83-85% humidity. Way too high. I let about half of the water evaporate from the crystals and tried again. Same 83% humidity. Cigars need to stay within 65%-75%, or risk mold, taste, and beetle problems. It's possible that the chemical in the device I received had simply decayed. I gave it two stars because the casing and magnet are nice quality, and it might have been a fluke with what I experienced, but I'm not trusting my cigars to this product. FYI The digital hydrometer I used for the test reads 76% with a salt paste and 70% with a Boveda 69% packet.
