No thanks to all the photos and tips I have been seeing / reading around here, resolved to get myself kitted up with a wineador some weeks back...
Finally tracked down one (after weeks of looking and calling manufacturers) that wasn't too expensive and most importantly available in Singapore
There are limited thermoelectric models here (normally too small) + most of the brands mentioned don't get sold here at all (tried Newair, Vinotemp, Haier), although to be fair was able to get Vinotemp to quote me from their Hong Kong office and they were very helpful, just didn't think the cost to ship was worth it
The model I finally settled on is a LuCell LW218 from a very small distributor that is similar in looks and size to the Haier 18
Have pics and measurements I already sent to Forrest for some ideas... feeling like christmas right about now and I havent even ordered yet! Also have some ready made trays from CheapHumidors already on the way as an interim measure - Will post pics and stats when I finally get more done
In the meantime any advice from brothers who have experience setting up Wineadors in hot humid places would be much appreciated, still thinking on the below before I order the drawers in case I need to build around them:
(i) the need for fans since the LW218 has 2 built in fans - top and bottom (ii) whether to put in an ETC (iii) potential drainage / condensation issues, set-up
For humidity regulation, being overeager I have beads, Boveda packs and kitty litter all on standby
cheers
