They make external, very accurate thermostats for refrigerators/freezers. You simply plug the unit in the wall, plug the fridge into the unit, dial in your temp, and run the sensor into the fridge/freezer. The're used for freezer to kegerator conversions, wine cooler conversions, and home brewing. They are a must for lagering. You can make any freezer or fridge into a precise temperature controlled storage unit.
One word of warning. These converted units can have a tendancy to mold and mildew easily at the higher temperatures. The usual remedy is a tray of dessicant, but that won't work for cigars. The whole unit will probably have to be well cleaned at first and periodically disinfected.
