How long have the 30 sticks been in there?
I have collected all of the sticks from BOTL from here and stogiefriends, this was my thought which is why I stuck the sponge in there with everything. I have been running this thing for about 2 months now.

I gave up on my desktop and have kept mine in tupperdors until I finish my winedor.
When I have only the Boveda packs in there it has gotten as low as the high 50s and I pulled everything before it fell any lower.
