Humidifier for 28qt cooler

[theginguy]

I'm getting ready to start using my coolerdor. It's a small 28qt one. I figure I'll hold about 6 boxes and a tray for singles. I don't figure on storing that many cigars.

My local cigar shop has little clear disk gel humidifiers. They're a little bigger then a baby food jar. It seems like all I have to do is add distilled water every month or so and then buy a new one every year.

So my question is, for my 28qt coolerdor, should I only need one of these things? Plus, is that what I should use?

Plus, I shouldn't need a fan in something this small should I?

Just order Heartfelt beads, you'll be glad you did. Months from now you'll be giving those pucks away.

I concur.

Beads are awesome.

Not to mention Heartfelt Industries has a calculator on their site that helps you figure out how many you need. (not that more is bad)

Should I order the Heartfelt discs or just the beads? What should I put the beads in and how often will I have to change them? How often will I have to add water?

How about the fan question?

Buy a pair of stockings (the .99 cent ones in the bubblegum machine containers) buy the beads in bulk, that way you can throw the little "bags" around in the cooler. You won't have to change them they'll pretty much last forever. Just add enough water to make about 75% or so of the beads clear, and you're set. I spritz my beads about every couple of months with distilled water and forget about it. For a cooler that small, I wouldn't worry about a fan. Just a few bags spread out everywhere should be sufficient. Hope this helps.
