Do 67% beads exist?

[Clint]

So there are 65% beads, and 70% beads.

What if I want my cigars at 67%?

Shilalah, or however it is spelled. Do a search on google, it'll pop up an correct the spelling. You can set them to whatever u want or pay extra to have him set them for u before sending them out.

Holy cow....See? I never knew this!
Same quality as Hearfelt?

I believe you can change any beads, but not sure how.

I'm with ya Clint, my ideal would be 67% but I went with 65% as it's much better than 70% IMO.

I've not used them yet but they have a great reputation. Be sure to read up on them a little, they have a few different properties than the Heartfelt (not good or bad, just different). I've heard many who believe they react faster as well.

I'm not sure about that. The Heartfelt beads are designed to hold their set point, that's kind of the point with them.

Well, the HF 65% and 70% look perfectly identical... At least to me.

However, my 65% beads hold a constant 65-68% depending on the time of the year. Now, I know I have more beads than neccessary, but I don't over-hydrate them, so I don't know why they hold just over the preset, but I like it.

I assume there is a way to "tune" the beads.. I just wish I kne what it was

FWIW, I have 65% HF beads in the bottom of my humi, and 70% in the top. RH sits around 66-68%.

 

[RonC]

no way to tune heartfelt beads. thats what makes them foolproof.

 

[Dr. Xikar]

FWIW, I have 65% HF beads in the bottom of my humi, and 70% in the top. RH sits around 66-68%.

Doesn't humid air rise? Wouldn't it make more sense to reverse that, with the higher humidity on the bottom?

Just a thought

Thanks Ron... guess my pre-dinner dirty martini is getting to me!?! My bad. LOL

 

[Treinenwj]

Dr. Xikar, that was my first thought, and how I originally had them. But then, I figured with the opening and closing of the lid/ escaping humidity, that it would be quicker recovery w/ the 70% on top.

I don't know what I'm doing though, the whole thing was a mistake. My 65% weren't keeping up with my old leaky humi, so I went to order more and accidentally ordered 70%!

You have GOT to try Trader Joe's jalapeno stuffed olives in your next martini...Tasty, tasty, tasty!!

Thanks for the info...I appreciate the help

I use 70% heartfelt and after playing around with how wet to keep em my humi's sit at 67-68%. I know it's not exact but can be done with heartfelt, but if you want it exact go with shilia beads.

I have Shilala beads and mine have been keeping a very constant 67% for 3 or 4 months now since the last time I messed with them.

Shilala = HCM right?

 

[Thunder.Gerbil]

Shilala = HCM right?

That is correct.

 

[apaniagua]

That is correct.

They seem to be the most stable beads ever :O
