I'm going to buy a cooler after Christmas, now I'm going to clean it with baking soda and water, I'll dry it, now the question I have is humidification what's better Boveda? or beads and IF I use beads how much do I use 2 jars? or can I use beads in bulk in pantyhose?? and where do I get the beads in bulk??

Bovedas take up less room, so more boxes can be stuffed in. Im paranoid so i wash mine with distilled water, then put crumpled newspaper in for a few days then wipe down again using distilled water. I let it fully dry/air out for a day, then fill it up."We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give". Winston Churchill.

I use an electric system X2 in my 150 qt. 2 hydra SM systems with 3 fans each that only come on when it's humidifying. I have those fastened to the side of the cooler on the top, with two of them blowing up from the bottom.
Makes for good air circulation.
I put 2 in cuz I've always got it open, so it needs to recover quickly.
I also use the xikar wireless hygrometer.

I use boveda in mine. More room for cigars that way.

To exchange/circulate the air all you have to do is slam the lid closed every few days. No need for fans this way."We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give". Winston Churchill.

I run 6 of the big bovedas in my 70qt coolers. I'm still a year on my first set.Team O'Donnell FTW!

I run Crystals in mine, I can PM you where to get them If you would like. I have found that pantyhose gives them a odor after a while from getting wet so I have been using bowls. They sell tubes and bags now made specifically for the beads. Boveda are great and I use them in my humidor but the nice thing with beads is once you buy your set up for a long time.0
