    I have 2 Hydra LG electronic humidifiers that I recently bought. I am having an issue with calibrating them both. I have a Xikar electronic hygrometer which I just calibrated to 75% using both the salt test method and Boveda, so I know that it is calibrated to 75%. When using the Xikar...

    I am now on my second replacement Hydra in less than 3 weeks. The older LG is still kicking but the newest units I have come across both have power supply issues. I'm waiting for replacements as we speak, but both are from reputable dealers so I have no worries about receiving them in a timely...

    Hello All- I have a Hydra SM humidifier. In order to get my humidor to 68%, I have to run my Hydra on a setting at 74%. There is a calibration knob, but it was shipped with it being at the lowest setting. So, I can only adjust the on board hydro up and NOT down. I go by what my calibrated...

    I am looking for two active humidification systems: #1 - Goes in my tabletop humi (250 ct "Treasure Dome" - cheapie but it works) #2 - Goes in my Vinotemp wine cooler (for long term storage) I am already using KL in both (couple aquarium bags in the humi and about 10 lbs in each Vinotemp)...

    I am going to be purchasing a Hydra soon with the extra fan kit. I read in this thread, http://www.cigarforums.net/forums/vb/cigar-accessory-reviews/122134-hydra-better-fans.html, that the fans that they sell don't really move that much air, but you can upgrade to better fans using the same...

    Hello friends, puff noob here, but very sincere. I would like to ask your excellent opinion on getting the 400/500 "foot locker" humi (you all know the one) sporting the hydra SM humidifier (is it a good model, better than oasis?), I was also going to opt for a pair of extra fans to put (where...

    Just got a new humidor. Rated to hold 150. I've seasoned it and now I'm considering purchasing the Hydra electronic humidifier for it. My hesitation is the size of the device (will take up some space...). I've been reading many of the forums and a lot of you swear by the bead and/or litter. Is...

    What do you guys think of my idea to replace the green foam in my Hydra SM with 70% RH silica gel and then put one pound of 65% RH beads in my medium sized cabinet humidor (2 cubic feet with 4 shelves)? I will place 4-6 oz of beads on each of the upper 3 shelves of the humidor. I will place...

    ok guys i have a question. do you think it would be alright to swap out my hydra sm water cartridge foam with heartfelt beads? i was thinkin that it would kinda be an upgrade of sorts cause the beads would help suck up extra moisture more easily and i wouldnt have to replace the cartridge...

    I just got a new Hydra SM and there is a small 2 position switch located by the fan/dc out ports on the side. This switch is not labeled at all and is not documented by the instruction sheet. Does anyone know what this switch is for? I have not run the Hydra yet other than to make sure it turns...

    I'm thinking of dumping the beads in my Igloo 128 qt and switching to a Hydra LG Humidifier. I like the idea of the fans plus this model has ports for additional fans since I think air flow is probably as important as humidity for long term storage. So I can put the unit in the center and have...

    WARNING, PIC INTENSIVE After reusing the cartridge of my cigar oasis ultra many many times, I started noticing that the floral foam inside kept shrinking, and its ability to hold water was deteriorating. I found myself thinking of how I could extend the life of the cartridge, I really hate the...

    I bought a Hydra Sm on ebay a couple weeks ago. It was working fine, but today I noticed it wasn't on. I contacted the seller, who contacted the manufacturer. Now I'm waiting to hear back from them. I've been assured this is a rarity.
