Hi all I'm a noob that is putting together a coolidor. It's a 40 qt Coleman. I have two questions. 1. Whats the better choice beads or Boveda packs? 2. How much would I need to have to keep it at the correct RH. I only have about 50 sticks right now but will be adding many more. Sorry if this horse has been beat to death but I couldn't find much in the search. Thanks for the help Greg

    Neither. Get some scent-free 100% silica cat litter. 8lbs for 20 bucks. More than enough. But you'll need plenty because your cooler will be mostly empty.

    It's basically the same substance as Heartfelt Beads.

    Your preference. Mine is Boveda. Much less work.
