What Humidification to use

What humidification device do you recommend for a Savoy Large Humidor. Right now i have 2 Xikar crystal jars in there. But do i leave the humidification brick in there also or take it out? Thanks.

Beads, beads, and more beads. I've been using everything invented, and by far the best to date have been the humidity beads. Beads from Cigarmony.com or Heartfeltindustries.com have been absolutely wonderful for me. I've purchased from both, as I feel both have been great sponsors of the forums and cigar legislation in general. You can't go wrong if you stick with the beads.

i have heard that the sponge that comes with humis may mold after a while...this tends not to be a good thing. i still use the sponge though..i just check it from time to time

Seems that all point to beads. I am going to buy some after Christmas.

Ditto the beads, also just to expound on the beads a little more as far as I understand it the beads will also absorb moisture from the air as well as give it off so it really helps in the long run to maintain accurate humidity especially as seasons change/humidity in the room rises/falls etc.

Guess you know what most of the boys use on here. I was reluctant before I bought them myself,,,,won't use anything else as I was one of those who constantly worried about the RH,,,now I can sleep without worrying.
