Okay so first starting.. This isn't my first online community. Some forums like the new threads because it keeps the forum active.

Others like people to use search function. I am fine with both, but I like personalized responses as it seems more detailed to my situation and I honestly don't have hours a day to search. But what seems to be the trend around here??

Also, when storing a cigar in the humidor, what's best? No plastic wrapper or keep them in the wrapper?

At what level seems to be ideal with cigars and the hot, steamy humidity they crave? Mine sits at 72%. It was 75% when I put my cigars in (about 20) 4 days ago.

And what's a good humidifier for my humidor? I doubt the black box is of any good quality. And my father has the same box. So I'll pick him up a unit too. I heard gel units are good. But honestly with so much product on the market, a name can mean more than the actual use. Help!

(oh, and I'm a photo nut..)
