Cigars/Humi-care EH plus

Question
I have had a humi-care EH plus in my cabinet humidor for about 4 months. Lately it keeps turning off. I can turn it back on usually but within a few hours it is off again. This is causing inconsistency in the humidity. The humidifier is free of obstructions and it appears to be in good working order. any ideas?
Hi Dave,
It sounds like the unit is overheating (or the electrical components is defective) and automatically shutting itself off. When it turns off, does it eventually turn back on by itself? I'm not sure exactly what is causing it to shut down so it's best to contact the manufacturer (or retailer where you purchased it) directly so they can inspect and troubleshoot the problem in person.
Hopes this helps. If you have any more questions, please feel free to just ask and I will be happy to help.
Regards,
James

Expertise
My main area of expertise is Cuban cigars but I can also assist you with cigar etiquette, humidor maintenance and troubleshooting. Unsure of a certain cigar brand? Wondering what a certain cigar tastes like? Have any questions about Cuban cigars? Just let me know! I have smoked every brand of Cuban cigars and most reputable non-Cuban cigar brands on a regular basis so I know a fair bit about taste profiles, cigar etiquette and other fine nuances to cigar smoking. (NOTE: My main focus is on premium, hand-rolled cigars and not cheap, machine made, convenience store cigars.) IMPORTANT: PLEASE NOTE THAT I DO NOT PROVIDE CIGAR OR CIGAR-RELATED APPRAISALS. If you have a vintage cigar item and you want to know if it's worth something, please contact an antique dealer that specializes in "TOBACCIANA".
Experience
I currently have 19 dedicated years of cigar smoking and counting. I have smoked every brand of Cuban cigars and most reputable non-Cuban cigar brands on a regular basis so I know a fair bit about taste profiles, cigar etiquette and other fine nuances to cigar smoking. For 5 years, I studied with Cuban torcedores (rollers), catadores (taste testers) and revisadores (inspectors) on every aspect involving the production of the Cuban cigar and I am currently writing a book that will help beginners understand everything they need to know about cigars and cigar smoking.
