I am also concerned with this as I am looking at doing a winedor. I have fans that are built to draw air in and blow it against the wall rather than blowing out over the cigars (I am afraid that might dry them out).

Air circulation in any size is beneficial.....less humi beads? A fuller cooler will hold RH steadier...I like to approach things from the perspective of what can I do/add to make sure everything is tip top, not what is required....its just too valuable to take chances/skimp...

I have a cabinet. It is about 16 sq ft. I have a Moist-n-aire in the bottom and 2 lbs of beads at the very top. Once a month I fill the M-n-A and wet the beads. Holds rock steady at 68*. I never hear the M-n-A ever turn on.

I have a small muffin fan from a computer in my coolidor. It's rigged to a timer and runs for 15 minutes every 12 hours. It only circulates the air inside the coolidor - it doesn't pull any outside air in. My purpose is only to move the air around, not insert fresh air. Seems to work very well. My RH stays pretty constant (65% beads) and I'm a happy camper.

I have 2 lbs of beads and 2 Oust fans in my 120 qt cooler. Rock steady.
