My granddaughter gave it to me. New still in the box.

This little dood is heavy, like 40 lbs. Compressor cooled.

I still have all my controls for temp/humidity. Going to run on setting 4 for 24 hours then hook the temp control to it and see what i'm getting.
Just long enough for a few 9" chubs from the top rack.

Lights even.

Looks great, hope it works for you.
I use a converted wine cooler for curing, myself. No humidity control, however, so that makes it a little tricky.
 
Yup this will get fun. Your back in the saddle.
 
So far its running good. Not checked the temp hold yet on it. Wish i could turn off the led lights, not finding a switch or anything in operating book.
 
Oh, wow! That is one nice, little guy! Congrats! Nice shelf and a glass door... I used to have a little dorm fridge for fermentation with my temp and humidity controllers connected. This one definitely can be sued as a curing chamber....

Nice Rick most units like that have some kind of switch in the door area to work when you open the door.

Nice score Rick, I used a glass door beer cooler for a curing chamber & it worked very well for small batches. Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

Operating book said the LEDs are operated by a board. Just shows how to replace the board and LEDs So im leaning to the tape covering like inda suggested.
 
Use the thin cardboard signs (posters)... cut to fit.. tape in place ... hell you can even choose colors ...
 
Would take a little know how, but would be cool to dig into the wires and cut the hot leg (main feed) to the lights splice that and run it to a switch then back in circuit. That way you could manually turn the lights on and off.
