The plastic trays I have are half that size. Plus I had to modify mine to stack. Those look like they'll work nicely.

Built to stack, I can fit all 3 inside easily. Now Bob, the question is. How do I get this thing started?!

Hey boots, I can help you "get it started" (insert evil laugh)

When I started my cooler, I washed it, aired it out, added kitty litter and sticks, and it has stayed at 68 to 70% I only have to spritz the litter like once a month, if even that

I was gonna put em in pantyhose but I'm afraid to tell my wife I need em, lol, but yeah in a container, I guess you could throw in the bottom, but I can't handle the chaos

Just curious, why KL? In a cooler setup like you are showing, if the baskets are full, one Boveda pack ~$3.00 will be good for close to 6 months, probably longer. If you are real worried about humidity, 2 Boveda packs at the same time will keep you good for close to a year. No room taken up by KL, Boveda packs can sit anywhere in the cooler, less mess than KL. Just my .02 cents but it does come from experience. I ran a 150 quart Coleman for years, it was full, with half used Boveda packs (usually 4) and never had an issue with humidity. If you want, I'll send you a couple of 72% Boveda packs so you can try it for yourself with no cost out of pocket.

The fact is, coolers are so easy to keep running, you can use just about anything. Bovedas work great. KL works great. They even work great together.

I'll give anything a shot. Bovedas may in fact be something I should look into for my actual humi. I recently swapped out my mold-puck for a black ice pie jar. It's running at 64 rH right now with the black ice. I can't complain about 64rH...however, using them...I lost the use of my top shelf to the humi.

Bovedas are the way to go. Get 2 more than you think you will need because you can recharge them. Once one gets a little gritty bust out the one in reserver and put it in a tupperware container with a little cup of distilled water for a couple of weeks and it will "recharge". I started doing the recharge about 8 months ago and it has worked great. The key is to not let them get rock solid. Once they feel a little gritty, you swap them out with the ones that are recharging.

I'd never want hand me downs. Stinky feet? Or uh,........... I don't need that in my cooler. And knee highs , I've discovered, are real cheap and the sales clerk at walmart didn't act like it was odd at all that I wanted to know where the pantyhose were.

Shoot me your addy and I'll get a couple out to you for you to use in the cooler.

Update: Cooler has KL installed, and baskets in place. Last night it was running at 61rH, a spritz or two and it was up to 68rH by morning. The sticks are installed, so we will see what the rH is this evening. If we can be sitting right around 65rH. Happy camper I am!
