Default Re: Interaction of temp and rh

Ive always noticed that when the temp drops so does my rh but if the temps than rise the rh follows it so during the day when I have the heat kicked down low and the rh drops with the temp of my cabinet I usually don't stress because as soon as the temperature rises the rh follows it so if I compensated for the low rh it would be too high when the heat kicked on. Not sure if it's posted here or if it was the other place but there was a chart that showed how rh was relative to temp and where you should be for certain temps.If yours is at 65% solid I would not sweat it as that is an ideal rh. If you feel really nervous just pop the lid from time to time and pull out a stick and give it a slight squeeze to see if your smokes are starting to feel dry. I've learned not to stress to much about it. My biggest complaint about this time of year is how often I need to re-charge my beads and refill the Oasis but to be honest I much rather that than having to run the AC all day long at 67-68 even when no one is home in the summers. I fear the heat more than I worry about my humidity. Keeping the rh where it needs to be is a walk in the park compared to dealing with high summer temps and making sure I am keeping the house cool enough to keep my cigars cool. One of thee days I will go the Vino route and put all my worries behind me.
