New Humidor, looking for humidifier suggestions

[crperkins]

Hey Guys,

I just picked up a large humidor over the weekend, I'm looking at options for humidification.
Out of all the choices I have went through I think the Accumonitor might be my best option. ( http://www.avallohumidors.com/Accumonitor.html )
It looks like Cigar Solutions is a BOTL sponsor and the main retailer of them....however it seems like the Cigar Solutions website is no longer up.
Anyway, any pointers, suggestions, or help would be greatly appreciated.

This is the same humidor as the one I picked up.

Never had a cabinet that large, but I've heard a lot of folks recommend Bob Staebell/Aristocrat's version:

Wow, that looks like a good setup! No clue on what to use for something that large. I use heartfelt beads in a much much smaller scale, and they work painlessly. If it were me, I'd still try heartfelt just because they're relatively inexpensive, and while there's no such thing as idiot proof (because they keep making better idiots), they're about as close as you can get. They also last forever so it's pretty much a one time purchase. I may be wrong, but I don't see why they wouldn't work in a large cabinet.

Cody, the Accumonitor might be the best out there. I know several private collectors and cigar businesses that use these and have nothing but great things to say.

You can always use a few dozen Boveda packs!

I'm a big fan of Cigar Oasis; "set and forget" simplicity! I do replace the cartridge on a yearly basis, just to keep mold from funking things up! You would need the Magna model for that mothership you just bought!

Nice, thanks for the reassurance Joel. I ordered the Accumonitor 20-40 with the addiitonal timer.

Good choice Cody.

Ive run an Oasis XL in my cabinet(s) for a couple of years.. and also had a Hydra for a little while as well..

Nothing wrong with either of them.. but.. you get what you pay for..

The accumonitor is a good bit more expensive.. but Im not sure an Oasis (or Hydra..) could keep up with a cabinet thats the size of yours.. My cabinet is about 2/3 the size of yours.. and I dont think my Oasis could handle it, if I didnt also have about a dozen bovedas as well as about 4 lbs of KL in there with it...

Im pretty sure the accumonitor could handle it all alone though.. and not struggle at all..
