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.
