Just got a 52qt Coolidor, now what?

boom · 03-27-2010, 01:11 PM

Filled up 3 Hummis and it was time for a Coolidor Costco had a 52qt Igloo Marine for $24.99. I could not pass up on that.

Did the whole baking soda and water thing, let it set in th esun all day to get the plastic odor out. Put boxes in it for a week, added beads a week later and on week 3 cigars went in. seals great and maintains at 62/65. Now I just need a few stickers and to start filling it up.

so far....
52qt cooler
So far 1lb of beads
Oust fan
Empty boxes
For a week its been running at 62/65

about $50 in for a long term storage

Got about 30 or so in it and was wondering if I should use boxes or trays, guess I'll wait till this room get tight for trays and keep the boxes in for now.

Sounds like you got it handled bro.

When I had a cooler and even now in my vino I like to keep the sticks in their boxes.

Have fun filling it up

Nice, I recently did the same thing!

Where did you get a hold of the Oust fan?

NCRadioMan · 03-27-2010, 03:24 PM

You did everything you need to, Troy. However, I still don't understand the whole fan thing.
