I also plan to ask Bob Staebell about the fan specs so that I can just buy some low noise replacements. The whole experiment would only cost about $20 total, so worthwhile from my perspective.

In 36 hours, the unit is already so stable that the humidification units aren't coming on very much at all. But the noisy fans are every 20 minutes by design.
What did you end up doing about the noisy fans?
My end table is considerably smaller than your humidor, Mark. I only have one fan but when it comes on it sounds like a cow mooing.
