That looks like it will work good in your cabinet. Pretty good job there.

HellifIknow. I honestly just know about it from a few regulars at the shop who are officers. Warned us to park somewhere safe. Two days later there was a big story on the news about it and it made the paper when a theft ring got busted up for stealing "cats". So again, hellifIknow.

Forgot to mention, I use PG solution on my crystals and crank my Oasis to max. It always runs the fan (thus I keep air circulating) but the PG + crystals keep me running between 68 and 71 all the time. I don't have a single issue with cracks, splits, or bad sticks due to lack of or excessive moisture in that Vino. Now my low RH box is a different story though. That one I carefully keep and eye on to make sure I add PG as needed to prevent it from getting too high (over 65).

Great info on the crystals.

As an aside....Don;t sell the floral foam short. In my big boxes I use a large block from the florist...The block lasts more than a year before getting what I think is plugged I might add water once over the year. In a stand up freezer without reefer stuff.

The beads aren't really "doin it" for me...
I'm gonna try the crystals with PG solution.
I've used pg for >30 years and I know how to use it...The biggest "thing" with any substance to control humidification is experience.
Maybe I haven't given the beads enuf time to try out..
