Le Veil + Inkbird is pretty awesome

[TanT]

I'm sharing a multi tower/cabinet setup with the spouse, NC stuff at the bottom aiming for 65-67 and CC at the top aiming for 62-63. This year we put some Le Veil bluetooth units in with the extra fans and replaced the older Govee bluetooth temp/humidity monitors with an Inkbird wifi gateway and 10 IBS-TH2 sensors to make sure every shelf or two was monitored. 

Props to Le Veil customer service, it's solid. They quickly replace anything that isn't working up to spec, no questions asked other than the original sales invoice from any dealer (Amazon in our case). Also props to Inkbird for being totally willing to send a very good discount code when I wrote and expressed an interest in buying 10 sensors and a gateway package. 

Not super worried about temp control as the cigar room doesn't fluctuate much and remains at a pretty steady 68F. So while we do have one smaller temp controlled electronic unit, it's not really needed for that function. More moving parts = more things that can go wrong, so I vetoed the idea of getting a Raching. I think it's easier to rely on a steady room temp + a completely removable Le Veil unit, easily replaceable and with an excellent warranty and customer service that doesn't require shipping a 400 pound piece of furniture anywhere or getting a repair person to make an expensive house call. 

Supplementing the Le Veil with some commercial and homemade humidification pucks. Bought a big bag of pure silica gel cat litter years ago, undyed and unscented of course, and some of that enclosed in a clean small container tied up in pantyhose for ventilation works very well when soaked with 50/50 PG/DW. Beats paying bank for the little plastic ones or the tiny Xikar jars. 

So what's your favorite humidor setup tools or homemade hacks?
