Nothing. "RH" is not important either. Keep your hygs. between 65 and 73% and your fine.

The only thing temerature has an effect on, is if there are beetle eggs in your cigars.

They will hatch if the temperature goes above 65 degrees Fahrenheit.

Oh, and martini ... adjusting your Rh twice a day ... IS a bit excessive.

I have 10 humidors, and only check them once a week, wth no problems. Remember, this is supposed to be a 'relaxing' hobby ... 😉

hatch above 65? Why don't we all have beetles? I though it was mid 70s was the danger zone?
