Electronic Humidification

Bubba - NJ · 10-22-2010, 03:44 PM

Please post any likes or dislikes about the electronic humidification that you use or have used in the past . I'm searching for a humidifier and would like to gain some knowledge about them before I buy one . For about 14 cubic feet of storage(if my math is correct). Brands I've heard of and very little about are - Cigar Oasis , Hydra , Moist N Aire and Humi-Care .

I don't have a need to electronic humidification, but I have heard alot of good things about Avallo Accumonitor. It comes in several different sizes depending on the size of your humi.

Just my $.02 Hope it helps out.

I'm very happy with the setup included with my aristocrat. Easy to use and very stable. Bob sells the units separate from the humidors, so you may be interested in talking to him about your setup.

Another huge thumbs up for Bob's Set and Forget systems.

Someday I'll get an Aristocrat and the set and forget system , but not yet . After alot of searching on-line I found a bunch of customers that were unhappy with the Cigar Oasis although it did sound as if some problems were from operator error . I found nothing on the Humi-care that CI sells other then it seems like a Hydra clone . The Hydra humidifiers seem to have a more up to date technology engineered into them . The Moist N Aire seems like a solid unit but lacks the up to date technology of a built in hygrometer . So I went with the Hydra LG humidifier because of the hygrometer , the remote unit and the ability to add additional fans to it . If the Hydra doesn't work out for me then I'll give the Moist N Aire a shot . I'll post my experiences with the Hydra unit and my new humidor cabinet after I receive them . Good day and Good smokes to you , Thank you .

I've got two Cigar Oasis Plus XLs running, one in a humidor, the other in a cooler. Both have been excellent, and well worth the money, IMO.

I have the Hydra LG along with two additional fans in my large cabinet. No complaints so far, Although I did add some of Shilalas beads to it to keep everything at 65%

My Sm Hydra I have is not very useful considering I have enough beads for my cabinet. Also the digital hydrometer that was sold as being adjustable and calibrated at the factory is about 10% high even at its lowest setting. The only use I have for it is the fans. I would say if you can swing it just fill it up with beads and get some fans to move the air around.
