The last couple weeks ive stocked this bad boy up pretty good. Ive got 2 digital readers, one in the bottom and one on the top. Also have 2 humicare crystal gel cups and 3 regular humidifiers. I plan on getting either beads or some sort of cigar oasis mechanism, does anyone know what would be better?

For a desktop like that I would go with beads.
 
Lookin' pretty good there :tu

Definitely get yourself some beads, I don't think you will need an active humidification device for something that small. :2
 
Thats what i was thinking, its a 500 count freestanding and one of the CI descriptions i think its the hydra said you can adjust it to maintain smaller humidors, but i will probably stick with beads. also, can the beads be touching the cigars or will moisture transfer?

For a 500 count, plenty of beads will easily suffice. No need for the Hydra, mine barely does any work in my 2500+ cabinet. :2

Personally, I would get the bead tubes or pucks. then you can stack all around them. I have all my beads spread out in dishes and it is a pain because they are open and I can't stack singles on them. :tu
 
i dont know much about coolers. are they meant to be used the same as a humi or just to store boxes and stuff? it seems like you cant really put anything on display with a cooler and it would be hard to arrange a bunch of singles but ive never dealt with one so i dont know

I second the cooler idea... you say singles now, give it some time you WILL be talking boxes!!

beware the slope!!

Great looking humi BTW, thanks for sharing
 
I keep a cooler for boxes and mixed singles and a desktop a lot like yours for my premium singles.
