You should hurry up and acquire the cigar habit. It's one of the major happinesses. And so much more lasting than love, so much less costly in emotional wear and tear. -- Aldous Huxley

Quotebstessl - 3/10/2014 1:55 PMI bought a new digital hygrometer from wallys for the tupperdor project... Doing the salt test, this is what I see after 24 hours... Could I be doing something wrong? Or just chalk it up to "stop buying stuff at Walmart"?
Quotebstessl - 3/10/2014 1:18 PM Well Crap... Even with holes punched for air circulation, still only reading 59% I guess this ones a bust...
Are you doing the salt test? It takes quite some time for the RH to reach 75%.

This.....I have 7 of those hygros and they all work perfectly but I did have to go through a few of them where I had about 3 of them not work at all. WM will take them back and you can start all over. I have one hygro I use all the time that is perfectly tuned so I put all of the hygros in a bag and test them against the good hygro...saves me from doing a salt test all the time except for the one I know to be calibrated.
