Humidifier Magnet Problem.
Ok, So here's the problem. The tape that holds the magnet to the humidor, about after 2 weeks seems to just let go. I will open the humidor, and the humidifier will just be laying on the shelf. I will reapply the magnets, and the will stick for two more weeks. Anyone have any ideas?

Re: Humidifier Magnet Problem.
Hot glue from a glue gun. As long as it does not have any odor. Any kind of stinky adhesive may impart odors to the cigars...
You could always just buy more heavy duty double sided tape. |

Re: Humidifier Magnet Problem.
Yep. Make room on the shelf for it to lay. I had the same issue once trying to keep the humidifier on the wall of the humidor (vertically rather than upside down). It too kept detaching because of the humidity. Honestly, what you should do is buy Heartfelt bead tubes and lay them flat on the shelf. That's the path I took and couldn't be happier. Well, I guess I could be being it takes away some room I could be placing cigars. But it's worth it and no more unglueing hassles.

Re: Humidifier Magnet Problem.
I had that problem with my coolerdor. The magnets on one of the humidifiers didn't want to stick to the plastic. I just pulled the magnets off and applied velcro. Problem solved. I just have to be extra careful when removing the humidifier because the velcro strip want to pull off. Now the other humidifier is doing the same thing. For this side I'm going to try the double faced tape to see if it's any better.

Re: Humidifier Magnet Problem.
This happens to me with every humidor I purchase (7). I use super-glue just a little bit on each magnet and stick it to the humidifier. No problems ever after that with it falling off. No problems with smell, odor, whatever, it works well and is simple and cheap. Good luck.

Re: Humidifier Magnet Problem.
I had the exact same problem when i got my humidor,one of the magnets had come unglued from the humidifier by the time i opened the box and the adhesive on the metal plates wouldn't hold to the box for any amount of time. i scraped the foam adhesive off the best i could with a knife, cleaned the metal then i attached the metal plates to the wood with krazy glue. I also krazy glued the unstuck magnet back to the humidifier.
no detrimental odors are anything imparted into the cigars so don't worry about that. short of leaving an open sharpie or jar of nail polish remover in your humidor i don't think there's anything you could do that'll give your cigars a noticeable change in flavor |

Re: Humidifier Magnet Problem.
Same problem. When I get around to it I am going to use some CA to make it more secure..
