I have my humidor near the a/c floor vent where it stays between 59 and 70 degrees which fluctuates thru out the day and night, air stays on longer during daylight causing temp to drop(humidor)... then goes up at night because house cools down kickng a/c off...is this a problem? humidity I keep around 67%.Winter I think the temp is going to stick around 70 without the fluctuation, relocating the humidor to different place in the room. I'm more worried about the temp fluctuation that the cigars are going thru everday during summer season.

I'm the first to admit that I like my cigars a little more humidified than most at like 68%. I think they are too dry for my taste at 65% which is what many people recommend. I'd be a little concerned about having the humidor too close the the a/c vent. The cold drier air blowing on your box and having such a swing in temps probably isn't the best. Do you have a basement or other room that's a little cooler and more stable in temp? If you do, that's where I'd keep my sticks.
