Welcome to the Asylum! You should drop by this thread (

There are a lot of threads here with answers for this. Search is your friend
It's pretty easy to convert any wine cooler to a humidor:
1. Buy a wine cooler
2. Buy a digital hygrometer
3. Plug the drain hole (putty, duct tape, etc.)
4. Put hygrometer and cigars in wine cooler.
5. You now have a humidor.
6. Add beads if necessary
If you have high ambient temperatures in the room with the wine cooler then you may need to plug the wine cooler in and use the cooling unit. This is OK, but it will produce swings in RH when the cooler runs.
Also, try to get a thermoelectric wine cooler rather than one with a standard compressor.
Good luck.!
