    What about propping the boxes open with a matchstick? Wouldn't think it would take much to get humidity in.
    they need seasoning just like a humi. I used to do this in my coolers as well before I got rid of them. It's better to let the entire box slowly season to proper rh. It gives each box a sort of mini humi effect, and you can even control inner rh with Boveda packs if you want say higher rh on conny's

    no guess really, I need to maximize space first, and boxes for specific sizes. I have to go grab some nylons to minimize bead space, or containers really but I have not hunted yet. The nice thing about kitty litter is the beads are big so you can use drills to make holes. It definately holds less then I thought, due to the depth. However, I bought it from Costco so when it gets full, already is, but too full I can trade in and trade up to a 50 bottle

    fyi...do not buy the $200 vinotemp there, it's compressor cooled which requires alot more humidification

    the curly heads are just for you lol. Probably gonna have a fire sale soon. Need to get stockings as well to maximize space from beads. As of now, top shelf is holding 60, mid 65, bottom 68. I just put all the smokes and a few extra boxes in this afternoon though, so it may take a day or two to settle, and I need to get beads at the top

    yes!! curly heads like woooot! actually, curly head was my very first short filler that i've ever had. Boyd gave me a very cool educational experience w/ those things. yea, it'll take a few days for the humidity to kinda "harmonize." I actually unplugged my wineador. No need to have it plugged during the winter months in my opinion.

    i want the cool burn lol...why I got it ;) really, if I can make room for 8 corona boxes and 8 pryamide boxes I'll be happy. That's the plan at least...

    hahah. 16 boxes of equal split coronas and pyramides. that should be good. will be a fairly tight fit but as long as you're good at tetris, you'll be good to go man.

    Temperature control my friend. Most owners of them attest to improved combustion of a cigar stored at 65 degrees, along with the lack of worry about beetles. No need to freeze if you keep them at 65 degrees.

    Ok....that makes sense. I will continue to follow this thread and may eventually do the same thing.

    I've never heard about Curly Heads having beetle issues.
