i have started my wood stove and added 25 cigars in my 100 count humi. i have a 70% bead tube in it. the humi only goes to 60% now. Can i add another tube to the top shelf to get humidity back up. if so what size should i put on the top shelf?

A wood stove will suck the humidity out of the air bigtime. I would suggest another tube of beads and for health reasons, it wouldn't hurt running a warm mist humidifier either.

Your humi sounds underfilled to begin with...I suggest you buy more

one good things about beads, if you have two much it doesn't hurt.

If you have a downstairs or upstairs area that is away from the stove, Id keep the humi there if you can.. Ive noticed that when my humi is upstairs near the fireplace, it sucks the humidity out of the air, so I keep it downstairs where its always cold, and I get a good 70% rh..
