Just tried the dollar bill test and it slid out pretty easy. I had to hold the humidor to keep the box from moving. I'm not really sure what I'm looking for with the test. I did put a flashlight in it (well--iphone with the flash on) and turned the lights off, saw no light coming thru it. It "sorta" whooshes when I let the lid fall. He said it holds pretty well. I have the analog hygro sitting in a ziplock with a 69% boveda pack waiting to see how much it needs to be adjusted, if at all. We'll see how it goes in a few hours. Here's hoping for a good/decent seal.
I adjusted the analogue hygro this morning (it sat all night with a boveda pack in a tupperware container) and dropped it in the humi with the boveda pack. Came home from work and it's holding 69%!!! Now it's time to fill 'er up!!! Just gotta find some spare cash, lol.
Well Cigar.com has daily deals on cigars that are hard to beat. I have yet to find a cigar that i can't find on this site. you don't need to fill it up right away take your time buy a couple sample packs so you know what you like.
just broke down and grabbed a digital hygro, I'm pretty sure I over paid and got ripped off, we'll see in about 8 hours tho. I called a local B&M yesterday (not my usual place, they're out) said they had one for $24. I went in today, it was $30 and change, and its not adjustable. I got it in a tupperware container now testing it, we'll see what happens later tonight/tomorrow. I'll keep y'all posted.
ehh, it was free. not my first choice. Don't get me wrong, I'm super stoked I have a humidor now. I can at least keep some cigars at home instead of driving 20 mins to my favorite shop/lounge. I prefer humi's that don't have any plates on them, more decorative types. The classier the better, however, when a friend offers to give you one for a round of golf or some cigars (at a later date) I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, so to say. I have yet to delve into the world of ordering off of any website, most of my purchases have been in a b&m and smoked on site, or at events, but never more than I can smoke that day. Once I get some money in, I'm gonna start ordering off of the internet. And don't worry, I WILL make some purchases from cigar.com. I can't join a forum like this and not purchase from the company.
