Pics of Your Humidor or Humidors

[MarineOne]

Look at that ..... 72 degrees and a whopping 58% RH.


Of course I have to ask in a style fitting for this occasion, so I'll quote Dr. Phil:

Lemme ask, how's that workin' out for ya?

Dangle i saw last post you made and see that you have a small humidor, why not fill that one before you invest in a large humidor.

The idea of a humidor is to keep the cigars at a stable RH like 68% or so and your not going to be able to do that with a humidor like you showed.

Do you guys not realize that when you open yourhumidor, the Rh reading on your hydro drops(or rises if your in a super humid climate)? It drops even more if you leave it open long enough to snap a few pictures. The best way to judge a humidor is; first, how stable it holds the desired Rh. Secondly, how quickly it stabilizes after a change in Rh. Such as opening it.

I can't read the numbers on the analog hydro on the front. But closed it looks to me, like it's in the high 60's. Counting back from the last numbered marker, which would be 100%. From that, I would assume that this humidor is just fine.

I'm sorry but that don't look like a good humidor to pick..
It would be next to imposable to keep a constant humidity with all the air gaps and holes in it.

I'm no expert at this humidor thing.

How do you think a Walk-in humidor would work? Which that GIANT gap you can stand in. Circulation of air in a humidor is good.

Agreed. Looks good to me.

Like i said I'm no expert on humidors.

I made a assumption based on the digital and the appearance of the humidor.

I still don't think it is a good humidor to start out with, but then again i don't know how stable the humidity and temperature is in his home.
The owner that took the picture may live somewhere that it would be perfect, but would it work as well for some one let say that lived in Arizona or Alaska?

Air circulation is one thing leaving the door open 24/7 is a different matter.
If some one opened up your Humidor and left it open what would you do?
With large air gaps i just don't see how it will be possible to stabilize the RH.

I think that front door prolly seals around the face of the humi. What you think are "gaps" are just the spaces between the trays on the inside.

I'd close it.

Holy crap how did i miss that. i didn't see the glass door at all.

crap I'm blind.
Talk about feeling stupid

I think that front door is glass. It's not just open trays.
