I usually refill to the point that water doesn't come out of the cartridge when I turn it over. Fill the cartridge a little at a time and give the foam a chance to absorb the water. Hope this helps. Oh, and of course distilled water only.

Ditto,
But when I had my Oasis, I would overfill it purposely and let it sit for a while absorbing as much as possible. I would later flipt it over to let out excess water and be all set.
Thanks guys. One other question. How often should the water cartridge be replaced with a new one? I've read that it should be replaced after 4 refills, and one person said that it doesn't have to be replaced that often, as he has had his for 2 years and has never replaced the cartridge.

I have the Oasis XL Plus. I fill it up all the way, and it lasts for about four weeks or so. It's awesome !
Isn't the Oasis going to take up a lot of space in a humi that size?
I say get some beads for the humi and dump the oasis in the largest cooler you can find.
By the way, my model is also the Plus and with the beads in my 150 qt igloo it I have only added water to it once in the last 6 months.
Shouldn't it last longer than 4 weeks?
Two more questions. I'll be receiving a new humidor soon that the oasis xl will go into. When seasoning with the oasis xl, Do you crank up the humidity level on the oasis to get the cedar seasoned or do you just set it to the level you like your cigars at? How long do you season the humidor for with this device? It will be a 150 ct humidor.
Anyone?
Right now I have been testing it in my 50 ct humidor for the last 2 days, and it has been working perfect. So I don't think it will be a problem.
Special features include:
- Ideal for 50-500 cigar capacity humidors
