You can use the compressor driven one just you cant run it cause it will have big rh swings.

On of my vino's is compressor driven and I just have it unplugged. It has always held humidity great for me.

Compressors have bulky motor looking units on the back or bottom of the fridge. Thermoelectric are just fans (they look like computer fans).

Ok it is compressor. The whole reason I started this journey is because of the heat down here, I have the humidor in there and the compressor on. I'm going to see if the humidor keeps the RH stable.

My thinking is it should cool as I want it too, but hopefully not effect the internal RH in the humidor, make sense?

The hump in the bottom is where the compressor is at.

Is buying a vino like purchasing a nice coolidor? It seems that if you don't plug it in then it is the same thing as having a coolidor but it looks nicer right?

Brutus2600 · 07-05-2011, 04:40 PM

Yeah, I mean...putting your humidor in there will keep it cool, and theoretically it should hold its RH just fine since it should be airtight. Just later down the line when you're storing boxes in there by themselves is when you'll be wanting a steady RH in the cooler itself.

If the humi is sealed I'm sure it should work. Seem like that would be great idea to test out with some Tupperware.

I bought a vino to actually use the cooling capabilities since I live in Texas and my house gets hot during the summer. During the winter I unplug it. And yes, I have a cooler too, but I keep that in the office, where I keep the vino in the kitchen, so yes, it does look nicer

Right on, I'll have to figure something out further down the line then.

Yes

In case anyone is wondering, the temp is now 69 with an RH of 64 (Just where I like it.)
