>I don't really know what "refreshing" entails
I'm re-hydrating cigar humidor bags with distilled water, pretty shrimple.
All it entails is putting the humidor bag in a tupperware bin with a porous object holding water for a few days, and a little heat.
>Boveda packs are made of a patented membrane that allows for purified water vapor to be emitted and absorbed continually. Inside each pack is a mixture of salt and purified water. Moisture is released through osmosis to achieve a predetermined RH in the environment the Boveda pack is placed in.

They last 2-3 months if you don't re-humidify them. The only reason they stop working is because the moisture pack dries out. They're cheap but I'm conscious of limiting the amount of plastic consumables in my life as much as possible. Nothing wrong with what I'm doing, pretty much every cigar and pipe smoker does it. Now does anyone know the answer to my question?
