I would like some input on bulk storage. I currently rent a locker at a local(20 miles)tabacco shop. I like knowing they are in a well maintained environment, but would like to have them at my house. I have been looking at several companies who make the large cigar cabinets, and would like to know if anyone has a positive or negitive feelings about their cabinet. Maybe one that was owned in the past. I am thinking about purchasing a unit from vigilant(the Climatech 1000 or the Reliance 1000). Thanks in advance for your input.

Berry, I have the Guardian 2000 from Vigilante and I am still thrilled with it, they are a bit pricey, but the simple fact that I don't constantly have to keep charging my humidifiers on my old humidors means less cigar maitenence and more cigar smoking. I have had it since last October and still think the world of it. Then on ebay I starting selling off my 22 old humidors, and someone emailed me and bought all of them at my asking price, which then payed for over half my cabinet. About once a month, you simply pour a gallon of distilled water in the resevoir and that's it. And when they advertise as holding 2000 cigars, this is no inflated number, in fact I have over 2000 in mine. I would someday even like to get another one!

Vililant can be found at vigilantinc.com I believe. The often place ads in CA and Smoke. Vigilant's cabinets start at about 2 big bills and go from there. Go to the site, they will send you a very informative booklet.

Thank you very much. $2,000 a lot, but quality costs.

Have you given any thought to making an Igloodor? I have two now, in addition to wooden humidors of various sizes. They'll cost you well under $100, including cedar lining, humidifiers made of florists foam and tupperware containers and Radio Shack hygrometer. They work really well and, although, they're not "fine furniture," they do serve the purpose and free up money for more important things, like more cigars. I've got about 700 in storage now, with another 150 coming in during the next week or so. Because it's beginning to get hot here and the house can reach 80 degrees or more during the day, it's time for me to design a refrigador, converting an upright freezer into a humidor with temperature regulation.
