I must confess that I bought mine from Heartfelt Industries because they offer three different levels of humidity beads (60%, 65% & 70%). I got the 65% because the cigars smoke better (for me) without going out as they do at 70%RH. Also, the best way I have found to use them is to pour them into the foot of a women's shear panty hose, cut and tie off the end. You can put that in your humidor without worrying about the beads spilling out. I then replaced the green sponge that came with my humidification unit with the stocking filled with beads.
One word of caution: do not over spray with water this will cause the beads to crack. So less is more...or at least better.

The beads worked great and will probably be buying more since I left my humidor in Afghanistan. I just bought a new one and I think I will be buying more beads.Read Best Reviews of Cigar Humidor Humidity Beads - 1/2 lb Here
I, of course, didn't follow the instructions with the first set of bead I used, expecting them to act like other beads, you soak them and they grow. They didn't. I read instructions, saying don't soak, spray lightly with water. Yeah, that didn't seem to add any humidity to my humidors either. Maybe there's some happy medium, maybe you just have to have a feel for it. These didn't work for me at all.
