    Another, slower way to recharge them is to keep them in a closed plastic container with a damp sponge.  These are some extra 72% Boveda's I have but haven't been using so I've been recharging them.  I've got them on a lid to keep them from getting damp.

    Owww is it really ? How long days does it take recharge ? Is it enough one sponge for two boveda packs ? Is there disttelled water in sponge ?

    Yes, I'm using distilled water, not sure how long it'll take to recharge since I'm not in any hurry.  I just check to make sure that the sponge is still pretty damp from time to time and shuffle the Boveda packs around.

    I place mine in a large tupperware with a smaller one filled with distilled water in the middle

    I store mine this way. Always have some ready to swap out with the ones that are drying up.

    How many times can you recharge them ?

    I don't believe there's a limit as long as you use distilled and take care of them.

    Do you have a dry basement?  Used to keep mine down there for July/August, the warmest months here.  Hated doing that, always wondered if a pipe started leaking or something.  Couple years ago bought my 1st AC in my life to put in the window of my spare room/man-hole.  Amount of money I've spent on them, they deserve their own comfortable room.  Put it in June and take out around September, cigars happy and I sleep better.
