Aa The Pocket Travel Humidor
The Pocket Travel Humidor is a handy little device that will keep your stogs fresh while you're on the road, on the job, or at play. It consists of a ziplock bag with a separated wick compartment.The wick is moistened with distilled water and kept away from your cigars by the divided compartment. The Pocket Travel Humidor is kept in an attractive pouch, available in a variety of fabrics and simulated leather, that closes securely with velcro. The ability of this device to maintain 70% relative humidity is a feature that makes this item well worth the price tag (under $10.00). The manufacturer claims that it will bring dried out cigars back to life, but this is a claim that the individual user must investigate him/her self. However, the bag has been tested for holding a respectable RH and it appears to have done so for three days. For a quick trip, a round of golf, or a day of work it will suffice.
