Humitron 2100 -- the ultimate humidifier (a proposal)

No offense dudes but I smoke cigars ,not obsess with RH and gadgets. I have a bowl of gel in each of my coolers and it keeps the cigars @62-65 RH . Anything higher is too wet,regardless of wrapper ect ect

I gotta agree with Kevin here.When I first got into cigars,I worried constantly about humidity and all that shit.I dont even use a hygrometer now.I just look at my beads and when they start getting dry,I'll stick a glass of distilled water in for a couple of days to recharge them.A little swing in rh here and there isn't going to hurt anything.

Thats not 100% true, swings in RH can cause a cigar to swell and crack the wrapper. Sure if it cracks at the foot thats fixable, but the entire purpose of the gel, beads,etc is to keep the humidty steady.

Beuaty is in the eye of the beholder. I watched someone last weekend spend $600 on 1 (one) cigar.

Besides if you obsess over them like priceless works of art that doesn't mean that you can't enjoy them too.
