Humidor/Cigar Update

Spend the extra $$ to get a Panasonic exhaust fan. Put one in my laundry room and I haven't heard a peep from it in 15 years. Quiet and powerful.Swaye said:
Winter smoking is becoming the biggest existential threat to my life happiness there is. I'm hatching a 5 year plan to lose the Rose Bowl when Mrs. Swaye says no to my great idea of building a complete enclosed smoking room in the basement in 2027.TurdBomber said:A fellow cigar-loving buddy of mine built a Rumford outdoor fireplace on his patio and extended the roof and one wall to shield a perfect little smoking and heat pocket that kept people reasonably dry and warm - enough to enjoy a cigar, anyway - at his place in Edmonds. It was perfect, but he retired and moved away.
One of those uber-pleasureable things you wished you'd never experienced in the first place, as its absence will now haunt me for the rest of my days.
Great machine-ally for hiding a deadly habit from the fam. -
Just ordered it. It's an on-wall display humidor. I'll poast pictures once I have it all set up. Like I mentioned earlier, it'll ship in 6-8 weeks.
Stay tuned.

You are a soft, farmer injun cigar connoisseur.Swaye said:150 years ago my people were still hatcheting white devils in the face and burning wagons. Look at how far we have come:
That is my current laptop display, and I also have it on my cell phone. I run three humidors right now. The big Harland Brown custom everyone has seen, a wineador convert for storage (NewAir), and a really nice Daniel Marshall Treasure Box desktop.
There are some real time humidor monitoring solutions out there to be able to sync up and see you temp/humidity but the Boveda one is clunky and never worked great, and Oasis has one but they charge you a monthly service fee, and the others always seemed sort of meh. So, I had a buddy who is super techy and likes to be a problem solver build this from scratch. He found some temp/rh sensors that were traditionally used in other applications, paired them with a base station (allowing you to name them, control them, etc.), got all the wireless configured properly between all elemetns of the system throughout the house, then custom built and coded a sort of open source GUI from Grafana ( I think) and came up with this (above) after a bunch of tweaking.
Anywhere in the world at a moments notice I can check the gnats ass hair status of all the humidors, and I can even run trends going back up to a year to see how seasonal changes affect things. This is basically the coolest shit ever. It isn't in app form yet but he plans to work on that next. Most robust system I've seen. Red man wins again.

You need to make this an out of the box system for sale. Fucking tits.Swaye said:150 years ago my people were still hatcheting white devils in the face and burning wagons. Look at how far we have come:

I'm still more of a black market & smuggling kind of fast strat AI so why expect to reform now?

And on the subject of weather, I sat outside last night with my leather smoking jacket on around 8pm having one of these after dinner with a beer and a whiskey. As pleasant as can be.UW_Doog_Bot said:

I'm honest to God considering retiring to Florida just for the cigar lifestyle. And the hot hispanic chicks. And blow.UW_Doog_Bot said:

Walked the dog tonight and burned a nice Nicaraguan (or Dominican? Fuck. Should've peeled the ring off.) No rain or snow, about 39 degrees and no wind - and no wind was the key. Drew some nice long, flavor-filled draws along the way for the first time in weeks.
Felt great. Like Castro in Havana. Except in a heavy coat, dodging black ice and scooping up dog shit in a plastic bag.
How far we City Fags have fallen. -
