    I'm going to start putting together a coolerdor tomorrow.

    I've been looking at cabinet humidors that are available locally and have not been impressed with their construction for the prices wanted. I think I will put together the coolerdor to start storing some boxes and talk to Staebell about them building me a cabinet to my specs.

    I am not sure what to do for humidification. I have been happy with beads in my desktops but thing the oasis with the fan would be better for a larger box.

    I'm also thinking about using the beads along with an oasis. Putting the beads in to help regulate things.

    Any suggestions?

    I have a Cigar Oasis. It is nice, but not as nice as they lead you to believe.

    It comes unregulated from the factory, so you have to fiddle with it to get the correct humidity. Also, you have to pay attention to it as when it runs out of water-- there is no real indicator except it is on all the time.

    I am thinking of moving to the humidity packs.

    Hope it helps.

    I just went to the cigar oasis site. Mine is quite old and the new ones look much nicer...

    Just an FYI
