Cigar Caddy 30 Count vs X-Treme 30 Count

kelmac07 · 07-09-2009, 03:44 PM

Fellow inmates...need some help with those that are using these products now. I purchased an X-Treme 30 count travel humidor from "cheaphumidors" and RECEIVED a Cigar Caddy 30 count. Of course I called and wanted an explanation on why I received a different item from what I ordered (hell, even my sales receipt shows that I ordered an X-Treme and not the Cigar Caddy). And of course they couldn't explain anything (but that is for a different posting).

The X-Treme comes with a humidifcation device that you add distilled water to every so often, whereas the Cigar Caddy uses Boveda with no humidification device. Of course the Boveda needs to be replaced every 2-3 months, whereas the other, just drop some distilled water in and roll. Is one better than the other? I also purchased a "tube" with the gel in it (add distilled water every now and again) to place in it. Will this help?

Which is better and maintaining the RH%, the Boveda or the humidification device? If you were to choose a travel humi, which would you prefer? Which works better from personal experience? I want to hear those comments. Thanks!!!!
