Hey Jim,

Thanks for the reply some useful information there... I agree with you the shot glass isn't much of a solution and I much like yourself am constantly worrying about some one moving the humi and causing the shot glass to tip over.

There are no problems with the seal on the humidor as it is quite a tight fit so my guess is the problem lies with the humidification system. Its a medium sized humidor that can hold around 75-100 sticks at the moment I have around 50 in it. I don't know if this may be true but I was recently reading some where on the net that over doing the PG solution can lead to all kinds of humidity issues in a new humidor. Does any one here subscribe to this theory? According to that site all you need is a few squirts of PG and using too much or rather soaking the humidifier in it (as I did) can cause the sponge based humidfiers to clog up and not be as effective.
