I know we were talking on another thread about cooling down a humi. I have no problem with the blue cooler blocks in the coolidor. However I don't think they work so well in desktops. I have a real problem right now and I need to get it corrected really fast. My desktops are out of direct sunlight, but the apartment with patio door open still is sitting at 75 degrees. both of them. I need some really good ideas really soon. I have a desk fan blowing across them, I need some good ideas here guys.

Freeze some distilled water and then put those cubs in a cup or something in your Humi? But it could kill you humidity.

get a large Styrofoam Cooler and put your desktop Humi's inside it and put the blue ice packs in it?
that's what I would do....unless you just want to wrap them in a paper towel and put one on top and one under the desk top humi.
Donk I bought a 125 quart cooler just for this problem on the few days in summer that the temp gets out of hand. I can put my three desk tops int here with a couple of blue ice blocks. Temp dowm, humidity good. Small investment when you start counting the value of the cigars.
I bet we can get this thing to work for us guys in warmer climates without AC.
It says it can cool down to 40f, I wonder if we can adjust it up or if its fixed at 40f?

How many cigars do you think that could hold? 50? 75?
As expensive as those automotive fridges are, you might as well buy a wine cooler instead that'll hold hundreds of sticks.
Ya it probably only holds about that much , but hes talking about his desktop humi right? Those little car coolers are about $40.00 and I think the bigger wine cooler ones are at least $100.00?

Sorry to say, but it's inevitable.....if you are going to stay hooked on cigars, then the only option for peace of mind is a cooled Avallo or Aristocrat cabinet humi!:stretchgr

There are small 8 bottle wine coolers that would probably hold 75 to 100 sticks...often go on sale for $50 or $60 bucks. A mediium sized 12-bottle will run $75 to $100, and the larger 24+ size start at $200.

I don't know if this will drop your humidity too much, but I have some little cubes of water that I put in the freezer so I can put them in drinks to keep them cold but not water them down. I got them from Target in a drink mixer/schaker set.
