Personally I'd get HCM from CigarNut on here.. www.shilalasbeads.com I believe is the site. They were made by Scott and are now sold by Mike. Great guys all around

Actually, they will be fine in an Aristocrat for days if not weeks.

Oh for sure, you and I both know cigars are resilient. I just meant that if his Set & Forget is down, it shouldn't take more than a few hours to bring it back up. And in that time, he shouldn't have to worry.

actually having had a power outage that lasted a couple of days, I can tell you that my aristocrat maintained the humidity almost exactly where it was when the power went. I didn't open the unit so it stayed sealed, but they are great units and hold RH well.
