I'm looking at these for a 12.5 cf cabinet humidor, and am not sure if the XL Plus can handle that size. Does anybody have one installed in a similarly sized humidor? I plan on using the beads I currently have to act as a buffer / backup to the CO, but do not want to have to rely on them to keep my humi at the appropriate RH... The CO website says the II XL has a remote display, but can anyone confirm the display can be mounted externally (i.e. doesn't have humidity sensor in display) for my piece of mind?
XL Plus Benefits
Smaller size
$40 Cheaper once I buy a hygrometer to mount externally
II XL Benefits
Remote display and controls
Definitely big enough to keep RH
More accurate?
As I type it seems like I'm answering my own question, but if the XL Plus will handle the size of my humi (yes it's tightly sealed and I don't open it all the time) I think the smaller size will outweigh the drawbacks. I'd appreciate the feedback of anyone who has an XL Plus in a similarly sized cabinet. Thanks in advance.
