Thumbs up The Puck

I heard about the "The Puck" on the Dogwatch Social Club and decided to give it a shot. I've never had any real luck holding RH in any humidor I've had. (I've never tried using just beads.) I ordered the puck on Thursday and it came in the mail on Saturday. I didn't get it until Monday though because I had it shipped to my office. Who knew Cigarmony would be so efficient!

Monday afternoon I charged it and put it in my large, desktop humidor. Tuesday evening I added a little more distilled water, based on my assumption that my humidor was on the dry side before I started all of this. After that I was in the process of organizing some things and I found my old, analog hygrometer. I've never read anything good about analog hygrometers but I salt tested this one years ago and at that time it was dead on. I put it in the humidor and forgot about it until Wednesday after work. I opened the lid and was happy to see the needle right on 70%. (I bought the one with the 70% beads.) Since then, and I admit it has been less than a week, every time I've checked it, it's been dead on 70%. I'm so happy with this I'm going to see if the short version will somehow fit in my cigar caddy.

Re: The Puck

Do these work better then Drymistat Sticks?

I used to love Drymistat Sticks, but, at least so far, "The Puck" works much better.

Re: The Puck

WOW! Thanks a TON for the kind words fellas.

Being a "start up" is tough and since I won't be "in the black" for quite some time, your kudos of product and customer service are the only true rewards (and motivators) to keep me going. THANK YOU!

The "Short" version will fit the 10 & 15 ct travel humidors with a slight modification to the lid foam (you need to cut a larger opening).

It is a PERFECT fit for the existing "Creedo" style humidifier found in the 24, 32 & 50 ct travel humidiors.

Thanks again for the support, I greatly appreciate it.

Sincerely,
Mark

This is actually how I came up with the idea well over a year ago. I have been using the "prototype" ever since.

Re: The Puck

I just ordered two of the larger ones for my wine coolerdor. The velcro attachments are what sold me on these things. It will be nice just to slap them in there without taking up too much room!

Thanks for the great pricing Mark!

Thanks Todd!

If you put the rougher velcro on the back of the puck, it will stick to the foam in the travel humidor without having to use the 2nd part in a different location (the softer part) like a desktop.

Going out right now!

Re: The Puck

Got my pucks in yesterday and WOW...these things are cool! Question: is it any problem I have one mounted upside-down? The only issues I see is when I need to re-charge the foam, but it should just yank off of the velcro...correct?

Word to the wise...instructions say open these carefully...DO IT! I had quite a few beads spill out due to my carelessness (OK...excitedeness ).

Yep, I designed it to mount to the lid with the velcro for easy transfer or removal.

I am having a more "professional" looking card insert that will stress the word "carefully"

Glad you dig it bro! I started posting testimonials on www.GetThePuck.com (the website is being redesigned as we speak).

Thanks again for the support and spread the word!

Re: The Puck

Bro Jeb' - I'm glad to hear we pointed you in the right direction. My Puck in my desk humi at work is doing the job spot on every day, where as before, with the Credo unit I was constantly having to fiddle with it. I love these things, and we're proud to be associated with Cigarmony.com. Mark is a stand-up guy and provides great service.

Re: The Puck

First I'm a nwebie. I have heard about the puck but I have a few questions. First does it have beads in it? What do you charge it with? Do you have to re-charge it? Can you just put distilled water in it? Can you only buy them online? I hope this is not to many questions but I just got a new humi and cant decide what humidifaction device to use. The puck sounds like a good product though.
Thanks,
Slim
