I have a big ol' bag of these left over from my many cigar.com purchases. I plan on eventually using some of them for starter cigar samplers for friends. Perhaps I could find a good use for the others though...
I've asked this question about the gels also. I've noticed the gels start to not work as well after a year or two, at that point I usually add a small amount of 50/50 solution to "recharge" the gels. Seems to work good for as long as I used gel in my small humi. I use beads in the rest. I'm thinking maybe if your humi pillows start to not work as well after a long time, you could possibly try to use a little bit of 50/50 to replace some of the lost propylene glycol or whatever its called, just every now & then as you think its needed. But otherwise stick with distilled as long as they are holding the humidity where you like. Some others can probably chime in on this.
I need to get me some more, they are nice to have when you need one. Somehow I've managed to lose a few and I wasn't smart enuf to keep them from my first few purchases another lesson learned.
