They look great, I'll be very interested to see how expensive they'll be in the UK though.

It'll also take a bloody big tub to recharge them.

Good idea will probably get some for the cabinet, but not sure how i feel about the cardboard

Thanks Shamz, I currently use the normal 60g sachets in my humidors inside a large cabinet but may be interested in these... be interesting to see price once they are in stockists...

[SHAMZ84]

I can't see prices being to expensive...

ie I Looked at a cube for 60g packs cost on boveda then compared it to Amazon and they were similar prices in fact I think Amazon was cheaper.

Will these be as efficient as Heartfelt beads in a large display humidor?
They certainly will not be as simple to maintain as Heartfelt.
I can't see me changing over to them.

Me neither

No maintenance with Bovedas... they just sit there... when they eventually start to crystalise either replace or restore

restore

That is my point.
It is much easier to put a 60g pack into a plastic lock and lock than a 330g one.
Heartfelt beads just need more water adding.

Another thing to consider is cost.
I have 4x 60g/65% packs in my 100 count desk top. I also have another 4 recharging. Cost approximately ?20.
I paid around ?25 plus ?13 postage for my Heartfelt beads, and they take care of my display humidor which can
realistically hold hundreds of cigars, even though I only have approximately 250 in there at the moment.

I don't really know anything about Heartfelt beads... what can you tell me?... I like the simplicity of Boveda sachets, no humidification solution etc

These are special beads which are supposed to be easy to help maintain your humidity...just need to spray distilled water on them now and then and that's it.

I think you get different rh ones...but not used it only read up on it.

As Shamz said but they do need a container to hold them. Some people use porous bags and some use dishes. I'm lucky that my cooler has two built in trays that hold a pound of beads each. Bovedas score in that you can just chuck them in your humidor as they are.

Thank you gentlemen... When I first got into cigars properly I used a humidifier with humidification solution and then discovered Boveda sachets and wouldn't be keen on going back to anything that I had to maintain other than replacing sachets...

I currently have boveda sachets in my glass top humidors which then sit in a display cabinet which in itself is not humidified.... I am trying to contain my collection to staying within the glass top humidors! !

I have used both Boveda and Heartfelt beads and much prefer the beads, they're so easy and my two desk top, mini cabinet and two tupperdors takes about five minutes to recharge
