65% RH at 50 deg F or 50% RH at 80 deg F
:-k
What's worse for cigar storage?

IMHO 80° is a definite no-no.
Thanks for the replies. I am playing with the settings of my new wineador and I'm having trouble maintaining 65% RH consistently.
How high/low does your humidity spike?

52%-68% and temp around 65-70 deg. It fluctuates in 24 hours, but the outside temperature does too. So I believe it's the internal fan of the wineador that is causing the lower humidity at times when it tries to maintain 65 deg.
Beads dude.

Yep, that's what I'm using.
That's a little much. You'll want to get it dialed in a little more, but don't be in panic mode. How full is it? are you using beads to maintain humidity? A relatively full humidor with plenty of beads should stay stable pretty easily unless you are opening it constantly.
It's pretty full, using 70% beads, and not opening the door.
My guess it's the cooling fan trying to keep 65 deg. because the room is in can get quite hot a few hours in the day.
high Temps = beetles
High humidity = mold and wombat swamp nuts
high Temps = beetles and wombat under boob sweat
Try changing the location of your hygrometer, see the reading are more consistent in certain locations.
