Ty,

Did you add a bunch of newly received cigars to the desktop recently? Purchases or bombs/trades? If so, that could be the source of the extra moisture causing the increase. Or even they were cigars that you had, that they were a bit high in the cooler and now, moved to the desktop, with the reduced airspace, it's more noticeable.

Yes around 25 new sticks.....as of today, my desktop is reading 65% on the money, and my Coolidor spiked up to around 68% when I added a new box of sticks and some singles. I will check it today to see if it is settling back down to 65% where it was last week.

Hump, I would say you need more beads or you have issues with a bad seal

I think I'm going to order another 70% tube, prob a large to go with the extra large that's in there now. The seal is tight, I can pull it around my house with a $1

. Glad to hear yours is just right now
