    Thanks to the help from the good people here, I have been recharging my Boveda packs.  It seems to be working fine.  Does anyone know how many times they can be recharged?

    I have been recharging mine for approx 4 years now without any ill effects.
    I saw a video where a guy just soaked them in a bowl of distilled water. Is that what you do?

    I soak a paper towel (distilled water)then wrap the pack with it. Put it in a ziplock and in 3-4 days they're good to go.

    I soak mine, but we have extremely low humidity here and I never need them to absorb anything from the humi.

    I started out doing exactly that. The outside lettering didn't hold up, but no ill effects with the actual bag itself. About a year ago, I started putting them in a tupperware container with a wet dish rag. This works well and doesn't mess with the lettering. I normally keep a set recharging and no worries about humidity.

    I'm assuming you don't want to wait till they are completely dried out?

    Takes a little longer to recharge if you do.
