    I wouldn't worry too much about the RH there - mine fluctuates from 63-68 this time of year where I live (in HOT central TX).

    I agree - 75 is a little too warm for the cigars...I'd go for 72 at the top end - anything higher than that you might want to start thinking about a wine fridge conversion.

    Now, that said. During the summer months, my sticks stay around 71-72 (drops down to a comfy 67-68 during the non-summer months) and I've never had any issues. If you are going for long term storage then you want them to stay a little cooler to age, but otherwise there's nothing wrong with 71-72 degrees, IMHO. I've been smoking cigars out of my end-table humi for several years now and haven't had any problems.

    It will always be a battle a day between those who want maximum change and those who want to maintain the status quo.

    I agree with you. Sometimes the overwhelming desire to be a shit-heel get the better of me.
