Pros & Cons
Pros
Small, works well, easy to read digital display. Essentially plug and play but a great deal.
As for some readers commenting on “inaccuracy”, please!
Work great for my curing jars. Battery is already installed so ready to use out of the box. Could put into jars to monitor humidity and not take up much space.
There is a pressure tab on the side of the plastic gauge barrel so that it can “snap” into place if you are inserting it into a pre-drilled hole. Easy to fix by tightening contacts.
Cons
Screen just glitches, looks like they will reset then nothing. Failed within 24 hours of reset and battery cover loose and flimsy. Not recommended for guitar cases.
Highlights
Quality
One improvement that could be made the reason i rated 4 stars instead of 5 the batteries should come loose with the hygrometer... Read More
Works as described purchased extra batteries they come already on
They are not very accurate nor sharp calibrated
Of the 5 units the batteries in three were dead
Price
They are priced a bit high for what they are but am happy with the purchase
They should be cheaper as they are very flimsy
Shipping
Arrived on schedule and all appear to be working well
Packaging/appearance
That would be the only negative batteries are not packaged separately
Competitiveness
Works perfect for our needs and cheaper than even one of the competitors products
Boveda generally states the rh can be 5 units lower than stated on their package in a humidor
Compared to the boveda hygrometer these are just a little lest accurate but still very good
