So a few months back I purchased a small round crystal humidifier pack to keep inside my humi. This thing works perfect and its very easy to use and see when it needs to be recharged. Now close to three months later I have noticed the crystals are starting to change color. It started to change light brown and in some spots black. I only use distilled water to recharge these packs. Can anyone explain why its changing color and if this is normal? How often should I replace these? Do I need to be worried that this is mold? My cigars smoke just fine and maintain their humidity just fine.

The same thing occurred with the Humi-Care water-pillows I have been using for around 2-3 years. They recharge normally and I have never seen even a spot of mold on them or in my humi. Perhaps it is mold- it could be a type that doesn't transfer to cigars; perhaps it is not mold. I don't care, for the time being, because they keep working just fine. Now, if someone here credibly shows or says otherwise, I'll just buy some new ones...

Reaper had this problem
sometime distilled can create mold. use polypropelyn solution with your next one

Sounds like good advice, probably should give it a try on the next one.
Phillyjack - Nope, I sure dont have that problem. Its just a small round crystal (gel) pack.
