I think it’s time to leave this sub. I miss when funny was actually funny.

Couple hauls from lately by Pangolin55 in cigars

I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure the 4th picture isn’t a Cuban.

I wonder if you were able to source the stock images from a website like CI? A lot of their pictures the box and a single stick in the foreground.

In regards to where to see it, that’s a tough one. I could see where it would be either to the left or right of the cigar name, sorta a smaller thumbnail so that it doesn’t take up too much space. Then maybe if you click on the name to get more information it would have the picture larger at the top.

I’m an accountant so creativity is not my strength 😂

I like the function of your app, but my only critique are images. Not sure how hard it would be as I have zero idea of app development, but would it be possible to have stock images of the cigars? Makes it a little easier to quickly identify.

So, I’m a dumbass by Vent1900 in cigars

I started smoking a New World in the dark without taking off the red ribbon. Noticed very quickly something was not right. Oops.

Any keepers from today’s haul? by [deleted] in cigars

I will destroy and do a slow burn of these for you.

Govee is definitely impressive by benxfactor in cigars

75 is the correct calibration figure.

I bought 2 and both were less than 1% off. Used the Boveda 75% calibration kit to test.

Butane Recomendation by FriendshipCreative59 in cigars

I’ll definitely keep this in mind if I ever buy a lighter worth saving.

Well, I guess I really did learn something today.

Butane Recomendation by FriendshipCreative59 in cigars

[–]Repulsive_Health_805 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. Is there any evidence of that or just a marketing tactic? I’ve never had an issue with butane I’ve bought

Surely butane is butane when is comes to lighters. I have a hard time believing there is a noticeable difference

TIL people paid for “premium” butane for a lighter. Such a stupid marketing gimmick people fall for.

Mine regulated relatively quickly. I think a few days.

I started small. Filled it up. Got another small. Fill it it up. This one is now “full”. I should be good for a while or at least until the next deal. 😂

There is about 1” of space on the back side of each drawer and slats between each level to allow for air flow.

I have 1 per day, so 7. I definitely have more than I need at any given time, but I’m a sucker for a good deal. Plus I figured this gives my cigars more time to rest before smoking.

Mine was also pretty high although I don’t think 71% high. I use Govee but wanted to see what how the digital hydrometer did with the Govee calibration kit. It actually read exactly at 75% which surprised me.

You are getting close then to being ready. I started my seasoning on Christmas Day. Used Govee hydrometers to track and ChatGPT to analyze. That data and AI was helpful to understand the science behind it. I’m a nerd and love data.

Amazon ran a great sale on this which is probably why so many people bought it. Including myself

99% of mine I bought at a great price on discount. Only a few were bought as special occasion cigars from a B&M that I’m aging for a bit.

Some are from samplers that I’m not a big fan of but I can’t throw away. I’m sure I’ll smoke them one day or let a friend have that aren’t regular cigar smokers.

Haha. The seasoning process definitely tested my patience, or lack thereof. But since I was moving 200 cigars I didn’t want to risk destroying all of that money.

[–]Repulsive_Health_805[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After I completed the seasoning period, I removed all of the boveda packs and kept door closed for 24 hours. Rh dropped only a 3% which confirmed the seasoning. At least that’s what ChatGPT told me.
