Its not fancy but it does its job.
Careful brother. When temp and RH go above 70 you can easily get beetles.
I've removed one of the packs sense the photo. RH is down to 68.
getting the temp down is the biggest problem i have had.
any advice?
Well for me I keep my cooler in a room that never gets sun. It stays pretty cool. About 65. That helps a lot. But other than that unless your gonna cool the whole house there isn't much you can do. from what I have heard though it requires humidity and temp to be above 70 for beetles. So as long as the humidity is down you should be fine.
thanks
ill keep an eye on it just encase
I believe the biggest concern regarding beetles is temperature. The eggs hatch around 75deg so keeping the temps belowe that regardless the RH should be ok. But, don't quote me on this......

Works well so far, and is very little maintenance. I've got a heartfelt small disc on the way, to attach to the top. I would like a large, thin, cedar sheet to wrap around the inside - something similar to the "sleeves" some cigars come wrapped in. Any ideas?
Most cigar boxes come with a thin cedar sheet between layers. Check your local B&M for one.
Wow, never new that - haven't yet made a box purchase. Thanks for the help.
