    Another solution:

    1. Buy Coolidor.
    2. Combine all contents from three Humidors into Coolidor.
    3. Enjoy.

    No need to season a coolidor. Just buy beads and sit back and relax.

    Also, if you plan on storing your cigars at 76-78 degrees, I recommend storing them @ 60% humidity. The rule of thumb when it comes to humidity and temperature, is that the higher the temerature, the lower you want the humidity. Lower the temperature, the higher you want the humidity. When temperature increases, it produces more mosture, so you require something to obsorb more of the moisture so the cigars would not obsorb it. SO, if you were in 50 degree weather, you would prefer close to 70 percent humidity. This will try to balance out the environment for your cigars. Temperature expands or contracts cigars, while humidity moistens or drys cigars. Hope this helps.

    But, in the end, it's all about how much you enjoy the cigar. You may find that you prefer 65% humidity when temperature is steady on 78 degrees. Play around with it. I prefer 65% humidity and my temp is normally 70-75 (a bit high, but that's the best I can do at my condo, but I have had no issues with my cigars also).
