I live in So Fla. (Pompano Beach) and have not had any humidity issues with my Vino, at least not yet. I will say I've only had it set-up now for a couple of months.

I'm using 1-1/2 lbs. of Shilala's beads and have 1 - 3" aux. computer fan that runs every 4 hours for fifteen minutes for extra circulation. The thermostat on the Vino is set at 67 degrees (there's about a 6 degree diff between the Vino and my hygrometer). Right now the internal readings for the Vino are 73 degrees and 64% RH, the ambient readings are 81 degrees and 63% RH.

What I find as being odd is both yours and Gator's Vinos w/ the Heartfelt beads have climbed in RH, but Gator's and mine w/ Shilala's beads have held steady.

I would probably call Heartfelt to see if maybe they had an explanation.
