    Wow. That's a beauty. I wouldn't have the slightest idea how to humidify that thing. Sorry. I'd consult your local B&M. They would probably know best.

    If I had to guess I would say to put the humidification devices on the bottom, spaced out. And mount a digital hygrometer (or two) near the top of the unit. I think humidity naturally rises, so that would make sense. cabinetmaker might be a good BOTL to consult on this one. He has a pretty complicated set-up, himself.

    You forgot to open the first html tag, edit your post and add a < to the very beginning. It should appear the way it does in the quoted portion of my post.

    Aside from that, I'd put the larger Oasis on the bottom because humid air rises and put the smaller one on top to help balance things out and get more air moving.

    Heh, that's just a really large smiley. One of my favs! I uploaded it to imageshack.us as a .gif file. Copy and pasted the "forum code" into a post, and voila!

    That looks to be exactly the same humi I have, luv. Congrats!

    As far as setup, I've got my Oasis II at the back of the bottom shelf, with the controller unit at the front of the top, just inside the door. It's worked well for me. I had an XL in the top for a while, but found it wasn't necessary -- just taking up space.

    Urbino,

     

       When you say "bottom shelf" do you mean the shelf with the holes in it ?

    Ok I have a 3000ct humidor. I have a Oasis XL plus and a Oasis II XL. I wondering what is the most efficient set up for the humidor with the two humidifiers?
    Nice humi. i have set up a few of these and I would highly recommed the Oasis II on botton and the XL up top. I would also look into a couple of small, low powered fans. those are clutch for spreading it all around and keeping it even. if you are in the market for a new unit, consider the uber large humicare electric unit. You can buy auxilary fans that plug into the unit and you can daisy chain them up the side of the humidor. then, when the big unit kicks on, all auxilary fans kick on too. I have not set one up like this but I have seen one and thought it was sweet.

    That's what I have in my humidor, but the fans are set up to run continuously. The unit rarely kicks on, as there are also heartfelt beads in the bottom box chamber as well as in each drawer. I add water maybe every 3 months, if that.
