Oooooh . . . I sees me some Punch Punch! :cigar:

Do anything fancy with the electronics? Or just plug up the drain holes and let her rip?

looking good! Welcome to the dark side, let us know when (not if) its filled and you need more space!

Great stuff. Maybe get some cedar trays from Amazon :). And looks like you might need more beads!

There's been a ton of wineador discussion on here, but has anyone ever condensed it into a summary list of steps, like a sort of cheat sheet depending on how deep you want to go? 1. Simple version (plug it in and pack it full! :cigar: ), 2. Simple + Active Humidification, 3. Custom Controller + Active Humidification + extra fans + custom drawers. Or whatever the natural evolution of the wineador ought to be?

My experience with my wineador is that the humidity always seems to fall to the bottom. I noticed your setup and based on the your placement of your humidity packs the top of your wineador might be under humidified. You should take some readings inside your boxes (put in a hydrometer in the box for about 24 hours and see what its is). The bottom of the humidor tends to get up to 70% and that is with having 1/2 lb of 65% humidity beads on the bottom. I never refill these, these work very hard to keep the humidity down.

This could be really convenient for someone using 65% Bovedas. Just swap the top bovedas for the bottom every 3 months. I actually do this with my San Francisco Bovedas and my Saigon Bovedas!
