falconman515's NewAir AW-280E 28 Bottle Wineador Build! - Page 6

for what it's worth, i dont even plug my vino in. my reasoning, it never gets too hot where i live and the humidity is rock solid as is. I have needed to plug it in when i've been in hotter environments, and everything worked fine, but for the time being i dont want to fix what aint broken. i'm only using it as a nice looking airtight container with notches on the side for trays

Yep that works to.

Like I said these are for temperature regulation ... and you know it's there if needed.

And for many guys summers it does get hot enough to need to run and it's great to know your expensive collection of cigars are being taken care of correctly with one of these.

But if you live in a colder climate or you may have you wine cooler in the basement or something you might not even need to run it all.

Use if you need it ... if not it looks pretty sitting there as a big ass glass window humidor!

moving into the new house soon and cant wait to do this setup! Great walkthrough

MUNKY · 06-17-2013, 09:13 PM

Another question for you, would a set and forget system work in this as well. I know it would take up more space but don't quite know if it would be the better route?

I've used a pound of 65% Heartfelt beads for the past 4 years in each of my Vinotemps with no issues at all. I have split them into two 8oz bags, one on top the other on the bottom. My Vino's are not plugged in.

Just buy some KL or Beads and really it may not be Set and Forget but I'm sure you have a couple minutes every 4-6 months to spritz the media a little.

Really this is the best way to go!

Ordered the cooler build commencing in 5-6 days! Truly pumped for this!

ford_shooter · 09-10-2013, 02:29 PM

My wineador will be showing up tomorrow. Can't wait to get it up and going. My humidor is heeping full and my next order of sticks won't fit.

Just bought a newair 18 bottle and have ordered drawers from forrest. Will post pics of mine once I can get it up and running.

baust55 · 05-25-2014, 07:11 PM

I bought a Vino Temp 18 on craigs list looking for a thrifty shelf solution till I can afford custom drawers .

AdamJoshua · 05-25-2014, 07:48 PM

Hey James cheap humidors dot com has small trays that fit in nicely and they are like 11 bucks each (they went up they were 10).

click me to see them

baust55 · 05-25-2014, 11:18 PM

I will check it out go re-measure . I was thinking 10"x11.5'' was largest that would fit .I could be wrong.

AdamJoshua · 05-25-2014, 11:31 PM

Oh ya the 18 bottle is a bit smaller, my bad.

Holy crap ... 900 dollars? I think the price of my winador just went up...

I just saw that my ImageShack account is not working since it is not a PAID image hosting website (BS) and they do not show up here looks like.

Kinda kills my thread due to this ... sucks cause I never saved those pics they are just in that ImageShack account.

I do see on one of the other cigar forum sight my thread that is basically the same and all the pics are working somehow.

If anyone has any questions about any of this let me know I am more then happy to help.

Here is a pic of my unit when I had finished it (it's pretty empty now but still looks the same) .........
