I want something nice and purty but still gets the job done.
I bought a 10cuft glass door humidor about 16 months ago, it's described as a 1000ct but I only have around 700 in it (of various sizes) and I consider it at max capacity. Takes up a 1.5' x 2' area of floor space and has a very nice appearance. So far, I have been able to maintain 64% +/- 1 and 67° +/- 2 in this cabinet with my home thermostat typically at 68°. I use, believe this or not, 2 foam rectangular humidifiers in the bottom storage drawer and 3 - 8 ounce black ice jars, one on each shelf, and fuel them all with distilled water... that's all, no beads or electronic humidifiers and no struggle. The part I love most, the cedar and tobacco smell is intoxicating every time I open the door, I love it. I would guess, with you living in a somewhat year round stable environment that this sort of setup would work just as care free for you. Just my 2 cents worth.
