Selecting a 50-150 ct desktop humidor?

**godfather** · 11-28-2005, 02:36 PM

I know this can be overwhelming....if it were me, I'd get this:

1) 100 Count Humidor - CLICK ME

2) Aluminum Humidifier 65% - CLICK ME

2B) A tube would work fine too, it'll just take up room. 2 Ounce Humi-Tube

3) How To Setup Your Humidifier - CLICK ME

3) Digital Hygrometer. When looking, I'd check the guaranteed accuracy.

4) Calibrate Your Hygrometer - CLICK ME**

** Note, it may not be recommended to do with a digital hygrometer (I've heard mixed results of the salt test possibly messing up the digital hygrometer).

There, all the work is done for you.

If you're thinking about some mass storage down the road, you can get by fine with a 50 ct.

There are a few people here that have a small desktop humi and a coolerdor.

I use a 50 count humi to keep myself from buying too much. :)
If I'm filling up my desktop humi, I stop buying.

The difference in price between a 50 count & 100 count humidor on CC's site is $10. I'd pay the extra $10 and get 2X the storage...

Does anyone know of a round digital hygrometer that looks cool?

I love to smoke cigars....they're orgasms of the mouth.

Whitewidow, the humiguage posted by Godfather has been the roundest digital I've seen. Are you thinking about putting it in the circle that is meant for most analog hygrometers? Even though it may not look as nice, my Credo and the humiguage are small enough to fit in the circular indentions on humidors.
Those Cubancrafters have great prices!

How about this digital hygrometer: Round Digital

Will the Heartfelt Aluminum Bead Holder fit into the slot in Cubancrafters or Savoys?

I'm assuming the separation between the Savoys and Cubancrafters is the exterior finish? Thanks for all the great advice...

Yep, the cubancrafters will...it fits beautifully and comes with velcro to mount the humidifier.

Nice find, that's pretty cool actually. Guaranteed 2% accuracy? Nice.

the alum holder for the beads will fit into the humidor slot? Dang, I did not need to hear about this! I think I have to get one now. Nice find on the round dig hygrometer.

[QUOTE=phoam]How about this digital hygrometer: Round Digital

It just doesn't look as cool as the analog though. Am I being stupid?

There is no slot in the Savoy - the stock humidifier mount's with a magnet and a piece of metal as does the hygrometer . The finish on the Savoy is like a mirror . Just looking at it put's a smile on my mug .
