Honestly, cooler sounds like too much of a hassle. Id go back to wrapping it in a towel, reading it a bedtime story and sticking it in the fridge.

You really should avoid any options that include ice. Condensation is not just moisture pooling on the bottom. It is extra moisture in the air -- until the air is saturated, which then forces the moisture to pool on the bottom...
Your cigars will proably be fine just as they are.

It looks like I have two options, one is easier and one gives me a coolerdor afterwards.

A couple days of heat aren't going to hurt your cigars Darren. They were initially transported from a tropical location to the US (or wherever for CCs) by ship in a container. And I guarantee you that it wasn't a refrigerated container. That's like a week of being baked. |

Some might be flown in, but for the most part the sheer volume of production makes this impractical and very expensive. Most NC factories crank out millions of cigars per year, Cuban factories aren't really open about their production numbers, but they're supplying the rest of the world, so it probably ain't a small number.

If you work in an office with a secure and relatively private space, could you bundle them up in a tupperdor and take them there until your A/C gets fixed? Maybe keep a traveldor at home with only a few smokes for your personal use in the interim...

What type of air conditioner was it? Central air or a window unit?

Yeah! The tech estimates about $1500 to fix it. It'll have to wait 'till we refinance.

![]() ![]() The cooler cools the air surrounding the tupperware therefore maintaining the temperature. The tupperware is sealed and keeps the condensation out of the air space where the cigars live therefore maintaining the RH. Or just don't worry about it too much. They are cigars not recently harvested organs and will most likely be fine for a couple days. ![]()

Why not one of those gel freezer packs made for igloo and the like? Maybe get 2 or 3, and rotate them out? Wouldn't need them at night, sounds like. Still keeps them cool, but no condensation.
