    Welcome skydiver......

    It is probably gonna take a couple of weeks before they reach the RH that you want. Alot of people do prefer there smokes to be at 65% (me also), so having them at 62% is not so bad.

    Good move getting the 110 Qt cooler, especially if you plan on sticking around here. I have a 54 Qt thas packed, I'm waiting for my cabinet humidor to arrive.

    As for the air circulation.... you can by one of the Oust Fans. They run on batteries and turn themselves on and off. http://www.oustodor.com/oust-fan/ Just make sure you don't put in the air-freshener.
    I'm not big on doing reviews, tobacco doesn't taste like "cocoa" or "nutty" or "mocha" to me, it tastes like freakin' TOBACCO. I know what I like and I really don't care what other people think of other cigars. I've never read a review and said to myself "Wow, that sounds like a cigar I'd like to try!"

    IMHO, I don't think there's a huge difference in a cigars smokability between 65%-75% RH. Once you get over 75%, burn problems can occur due to "damp" spots. Under 65% the cigar can get a little hotter and harsher, and you can get cutting damage problems from a more fragile wrapper.

    Welcome from TX!! I would give your sticks at least 2-3 weeks to recover from low humidity. It will be worth the wait, smoking a nasty dried out stick that has been kept at lower than 60% is not pleasant.
    There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.
