Canada Humidor Stories… “Leaky Humidor? Or Not…”

Humidor Monitoring with SensorPush

Life in the retail industry is a very interesting one to say the least… not a dull moment 😊

There is no lack of challenges, but also no lack of very satisfying moments, when we look back at our work and conclude that it is all worth it.

With that in mind, we decided that there is a benefit to you our readers and customers, that we share some of the behind the scene stories.

Welcome to a collection of stories from our daily lives inside our little business that we love so much.

Somewhere along this journey you will find situations or maybe personality traits that may seem… weird… Some stories might feel familiar, others might seem far-fetched…

Two things we can guarantee:

  • The situations are real, no fiction involved…
  • Our intent is to share these situations truthfully and with learning in mind… There will be no sarcasm and ridicule intended.

We are Canada Humidor and these are our stories…

Welcome to our First Story… “Leaky Humidor? Or Not…”YouTube Video

A Cigar Humidor was returned by a customer as they believed it was leaky. During this 21 day test, Louis Batonyi with Canada Humidor, proceeds to season and monitor the humidor with SensorPush Technology.

Although the video is quite long, there is a lot of good information that might be of interest to some of our customers. Please do not hesitate to ask questions in the comments. We’ll do our best to answer.

How To Season A Cigar Humidor And Calibrate A Hygrometer

Winter is around the corner and some of us love to travel to Cuba, Dominican Republic or other cigar destinations. Some cigars might make it back to Canada and maybe we need a new Cigar Humidor or revive a dormant one to house those cigars.

The winters in Canada can be brutal for our precious cigars… The very dry environment and fluctuating temperatures inside our homes require us to pay closer attention to the Humidification in the Cigar Humidors.

In this video, Louis Batonyi, with Canada Humidor, explains how he seasons a Cigar Humidor and calibrates a hygrometer, with the hope that he can answer some of the questions that our customers have on those 2 topics.

How to Purge and Fill a Xikar Cigar Lighter

In the world of cigar lighters, Xikar Cigar Lighters are some of the best out there. But even a great lighter will not work properly if it’s not purged and filled with butane properly.

In this short video, Louis with Canada Humidor explains how we purge and fill a Xikar Lighter with Xikar Premium Butane in our shop… And we do it a lot, hundreds of times a month to be exact. We fill, purge and test every lighter before it leaves our warehouse on its way to our customers.
