    That's not the simplest thing I could ever think of.

    Especially since I have neither an ice chest nor a Cigar Oasis. And I don't particularly want to screw around with a cigar humidification system.

    Bovedas -- which I've been using -- are 0% maintenance. My only problem is that they are "slow to respond" to temperature-change-induced RH swings.

    I'm not the type of guy who laughs at a new idea or laughs at the concept of using KL for humidification. I've read old threads where people got into huge arguments about KL vs non-KL. I really don't care either way. I just want something that's as little maintenance as I can have; I have enough to occupy my mind.

    If HF beads lock on to a certain RH and don't let go, then I'll be happy to throw those in my DIY containers.

    (FYI, my DIY containers seem to work well with vapor transmission. There are 16 columns of pushpin-punched holes in each tubo. Punching the holes was extremely easy, though a bit time-consuming. I just eyeballed it. I used La Gloria Cubana 'Gloria en Cedro' tubos for the project.)
