Usually if I dry box cigars, and it's rare, but I use the Opus X box. Seems to be the best choice out of my other boxes, has a slight seal but not too sealed. Try and get one if you can. I don't unwrap mine, seem to be good.
Good Luck!
Web you need to get yourself 1 pound of Conservagel 65rh beads. Think they run about 25 bucks with shipping. As wet as it sounds your ambient environment is, pop those beads into a few containers, and place them in your humidors dry (ie without adding the distilled water they require). Will solve every problem you have, and I guarantee you will be shocked at how little maintenance they require and how perfect your cigars are smoking. After a few weeks for your humidor and cigars to get to 65rh that is. Many here will attest to the fact that once they bought humidity beads, they will NEVER switch back to any other humidifier. Best 25 bucks I ever spent, and I can go months without worrying about my aging humidors, they are that hands-free and reliable.
Beads are pretty expensive anymore, and I just realized conservagel no longer has beads. Silica sand can be bought dirt cheap by buying the cat litter pearls at Walmart or petco. Just make sure Its unscented litter pearls and make sure its100% silica. Know it sounds odd but its the same material just dirt cheap. Worth a try as youcan get like 5 to 8 pounds for 15 to 20 dollars. Walmart has Mimi Litter brand or exquisicat if you need an idea for 2 brands of silica litter pearls that I know for a fact work well. If you need any help setting up pm me.
