This is the basic version of the HERO container in a portable format: 100 ml capacity, about 5 g of dry material or herbs according to the seller, body with a diameter of 6.5 cm and a height of 7.5 cm. It is made of bio-photonic purple glass, which the manufacturer claims blocks UV radiation, and the closure is described as odorless. The hygrometer is built into the lid and shows the humidity inside without opening the container. In the set, you will find a Boveda 62% sachet as a humidity regulator and two batteries for the hygrometer, including one spare. This is a simple and complete solution: a light-blocking vessel, an indicator of internal conditions, and an element that maintains those conditions. The container is not vacuum-sealed: there is no pump or valve here, and the conditions inside are maintained by the sachet, not by evacuated air. The set is complete from day one: the Boveda sachet and two batteries, including one spare, are in the box along with the container, so you have everything right away.<\/p>\n
What exactly will you find in the box:<\/p>\n
Boveda is the proprietary name of a two-way sachet. The sachet not only absorbs moisture like a regular desiccant but also releases it when the container becomes too dry - this keeps the conditions around the declared 62% instead of drifting in one direction. It is replaced when it hardens and stops being flexible, not according to a calendar. It must not be cut or moistened, as both actions ruin its effectiveness. The hygrometer in the lid does not regulate anything, it only measures, and the glass is solely responsible for blocking light. Three elements, three different tasks. Only one of them wears out over time, as the sachet is a replaceable material, while the glass and lid remain permanent. The glass also has one more advantage that is rarely mentioned: it does not absorb odors, so the next contents do not take on the aroma of the previous one, which can be a real problem with plastics.<\/p>\n
The container is used for storing dry material, herbs, and other dry plant materials. The sachet is placed loosely on the contents, not cut or moistened.<\/p>\n
This container is intended for those who want to have a small supply in stable conditions and do not need additional functions. The dimensions of 6.5 by 7.5 cm mean that it fits in a drawer, in a cosmetics bag, and in the side pocket of a backpack, making it suitable as a portable container. If you care about the declared resistance of the casing to water and dust or a newer hygrometer with a color display, these two features are offered by the PRO series. However, if you keep larger quantities, this size will quickly prove to be too small. And the same rule applies regardless of the model: one container means one aroma, because two strains stored together will exchange scents despite being tightly sealed. One last thing to remember when carrying: it is still glass, so it\u2019s better to keep it in a rigid pocket or wrap it in something soft in your backpack. The spare battery included means at least that the display won\u2019t go dark at the first unfortunate moment.<\/p>\n
The seller declares about 5 g of dry material or herbs. This is an approximate value, as fluffy material takes up significantly more space than compacted material, so the actual content depends on what you put in. A certain number is the capacity itself, which is 100 ml, as it describes the volume of the vessel, not the mass of the contents.<\/p>\n
This is a two-way humidity regulator: it releases moisture when the container becomes too dry and absorbs it when there is too much, maintaining conditions around 62%. It is replaced when it hardens and stops being flexible. Do not cut the sachet or wet it - this ruins its effectiveness.<\/p>\n
Treat it like electronic equipment: the hygrometer and battery are in the lid, so the container should not go in the dishwasher or under running water. You can wash the glass body by hand with lukewarm water, and wipe the lid with a cloth. The declared resistance of the casing to water and dust is only provided by the manufacturer for the PRO series.<\/p>\n
Rinse the glass body with warm water without aggressive detergents and dry it thoroughly before refilling, as water residues increase humidity faster than anything else. Wipe the lid with the hygrometer only with a soft cloth. Dispose of the used battery at a collection point, not in the regular trash.<\/p>\n
If you care about the declared water and dust resistance of the casing and a newer hygrometer, the same format has a PRO version. For a larger supply, there are HERO PRO containers with greater capacity. All are located next to each other in the category Storage<\/a>.<\/p>\n On the blog, we write about how to recognize well-stored dry herb<\/a> and which grinder to choose for dry herb<\/a>, and we discuss how to moisturize dried herbs and what to avoid in the guide on moisturizing dried herbs<\/a>.<\/p>\n The container is glass, so treat it like any glass vessel: do not place it on the edge of the counter, do not put it in the dishwasher, and do not expose it to sudden temperature changes. The hygrometer is powered by a button battery - keep it out of reach of children, and dispose of used batteries at a collection point, not in regular trash. For cleaning, lukewarm water and a soft cloth are sufficient, without aggressive detergents and without scrubbing the display element.<\/p>\n The container is a storage accessory. It is not food or a dietary supplement and does not replace a varied diet or the recommendations of the manufacturer of the product you keep in it.<\/p>\n Not sure whether to choose the basic or PRO version?
