I have about 6 lbs of HF beads on all shelfs and thr bottom shelf has a really big tub of floral beads that are used for mass humidity with a RV refrigerator fan on top of that tub to circulate the air.

The floral beads are super cheap but DO NOT TOUCH THEM. My daughters had mold in three days.

And I use beads so I don't have to be so OCD on keeping the thing full all the time.

... the reason your's goes to 74% is because that's what the distilled water on the green block gives off normally. Remove the green block and replace with 65% beads in a nylon stocking material. Then saturate the beads with distilled H2O to the point that they are not quite slushy. Set your system to 65% and you will be good. The fan will only run a little at that point.

I'm giving this a try.

However, back when I was in Texas, with the green foam stuff, I set the thing to 65% and it stayed right around that number on the ambient humidity display.

And obviously, I reckon, they wouldn't sell the thing if it always stayed at 74%. 🤔

Screw the beads. Get an active humidifier.

6 lbs. of beads? How much potential cigar space does that take up?

I tried beads. And tried them again. I personally think they suck. I use Cigar Oasis in both my wine fridges and they hold humidity fantastically.
