Default Re: Humidor Advise for a beginner

Welcome aboard!

You may want to check through some of the sticky threads for humidor suggestions. A few "conventional wisdom" comments about your particular humidor:

1. Generally, analog hygrometers (with hands) are so innaccurate as to be useless. But, if you want one hanging off your 'dor, its OK with me!

2. Thompson's is not usually regarded as the best place to do business with. They are very aggresive in their after-marketing.

3. If you ever have a problem with a leak, the glass top will be one of your first suspects.

There are many sources of 'dors to be found by searching in the forums.

Here's a good thread to help point you in the right direction (it's a sticky):
