Ok guy here it is got it up and running a few hours ago. I used the controller from a GE fridge until I get one that will go into the hole in the front. I got a plastic fan cover with a k thermocouple holder built into it Not sure what it came out of but is exactly what I needed. It was black so I Used some Craft bond spray to glue some cedar cigar wrappers I had been saving onto it and cut out the holes Looks much better.

Looks to be working good. Yes the humidity is low I forgot to plug the Oasis back in and it was open for a hour or so when I installed the cooler/heater.

MY cigars are going to be so HAPPY..


There own temperature and humidity controlled storage facility.


Does anyone else think I have to much time on my hands? LOL

Travis, I don't think your humidity is too low. In my humidor, the top is at 65% and the bottom is at 63%.

Good job at making it clean. How are you cooling the hot side?

Also, how are you dealing with condensation on the cooling side?

5 inch muffin fan outside. The cooling side is outside. I recessed the cooling side of the element so it is actually outside the humi. there is a slope away from the humi with a small cut out that drains into a pan carved into the foam I used for insulation under the hot side.
