Why are you stocking up on Bovedas? Do you have that much storage, or are you not recharging your packs?
For a 200 count humidor. They are the 69% packs. Does recharging really work? Just seal with a glass of distilled water for how long?

Don't soak them!.. leave in a tupperware with some beads or something else producing humidity, and wait.. they will slowly absorb anything over their set %.. IF they aren't already dry to the point of being crispy.. there are a few threads around here about recharging. I recharge mine, with no issues.

Recharging absolutely does work. I've even recharged packs that have gone completely dry. You can just put them in a sealed container next to a shot glass filled with distilled water. The bovedas will absorb the humidity from the evaporating dw. The process usually takes about a week. Check them to make sure they don't over fill, or the paper wrapping can become compromised. The same can happen if you spill any of the water on them. I usually discard them when that happens. To be on the safe side, in a big enough container instead of a shot glass, place a clean unused sponge soaked with dw in a small dish. I made a container with a screen in it. I pour dw in the bottom, and then the bovedas sit on the screen high and dry above the water as they recharge. Here's a link to the build thread:

You can set up a rotation of recharging packs while others are in your humidor, and save money on constantly buying new ones.
