    Default I think I need a coolidor (newbie)

    Ok.......!

    Well I have managed to run completely out of room for my sticks. I have been smoking for 2 months now and have 4 humidors, and almost too many gars. I am either going to have to stay away from internet cigar stores and my B&M, or just go to walley-world and get a big cooler. What do you guys think???

    I also have about 3/4 lbs of 65% beads in house.

    Get a cooler! You will soon need it. And just a sugestion, buy the biggest one you can find (I'm already in the process of filling up my second cooler in only 5-6 months).

    I'm in the same boat, I've actually been shopping for a trunk to make a trunkador, but may have to settle for a coolerdor just to have something now.

    With the weather warming up though, you shouldn't have a problem making room

    Same here. I just set up a coolidor about a month ago. It works great. I can have them all in one place so I am not constantly watching humidity in my three desktop editions. Now I keep 25 cigars in two of my desktoppers. That way the humidity is easier to keep up in those and I hardly ever pop the lid on my coolidor.

    Pop the lid about once every 4-6 weeks just to exchange the air. The cooler is much more air tight than a cabinet and some people feel ammonia and other gasses will tend to build up, especially from young cigars. I don't know if it's true, or if it is to what extent, but it can't hurt.

    I think I will try and get the largest 5 day cooler I can find, which will help in the temp control also.

    I think this one should hold me over for a lil while!!!! 320 QT

    Hey John, what is that long dark cigar in the bottom middle of your pictures? Was curious to what it is and would you recommend it. Thanks.

    I have this one:

    http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=3512888

    I have 10 boxes of new and three other boxes in there with singles. Just covers the bottom with three boxes double stacked. Could easily hold 30 boxes with room to move the air around with the Oust fan.

    Thanks for the offer John, but I currently have no room in my humi at this moment. I'll keep that in mind though and maybe we can do an equal trade later on. I've never had an AF I didn't like, so I'm sure I'd like this one as well.
