A humidor is a device used to maintain a specific level of humidity, typically for storing cigars or tobacco. Electric humidors use an electrical power source to maintain the desired humidity level, making them more reliable and consistent than passive humidors. They are often equipped with digital controls and hygrometers to precisely monitor and adjust the humidity levels.
Electric humidors offer several benefits over passive humidors. They are less likely to fluctuate in humidity levels, which can damage cigars or tobacco. They are also easier to maintain, as they do not require constant monitoring or refilling. Additionally, electric humidors can be used in a wider variety of environments, as they are not affected by external temperature or humidity levels.
