20 Best Digital Hygrometer For Humidor (2023 Updated)

Product works just as described. Accurate humidity readings without paying a fortune. Perfect size for what we needed. Easily mounts to side of fridge.

I bought four of these in the same order. I then placed them in the same room and location. They all match each other in temperature and humidity. They also match to another one that I bought many months ago.

I don’t know the accuracy of them, but at least they are all precise with each other. So it seems the factory calibration is very good.

I bought this for my dad who has low vision and he said the numbers were clear and large enough for him to read and not a lot of other info on the screen to navigate. The temp and humidity adjust quickly to new surroundings and appear to be accurate.

The magnets on the back are strong and hold well. It does not have a stand or base so needs to be on a magnetic surface.

This is essentially the same review I’ve submitted for 7 of the RHM15 models I use in my guitar cases – purchased 2 of these for the larger display. In short, these are CONSISTENTLY accurate, both relatively to actually humidity – and even more so: the actual humidity reported.

These 2 units plus 6 of the 7 RHM15s report exactly the same reading, the one other is only 1 degree off — I have never seen or heard of such phenomenal accuracy from those of us that use them in our homes and guitar cases.

I just provided this larger one and the RHM15 as gifts to my guitar instructor of over 10 years. And so reported the precedented accuracy to my local, high-end guitar store. I purchased this model for the larger batteries, and that it could be calibrated with accessory kit – but, in my use, clearly not needed given the exact accuracy of all the meters.

Very easy to use. Don.t Know if the reading is accurate or not. They suggest calibrating it in a humidity controlled enclosure at 70%. Does every purchaser have the facility!?

I bought a dehumidifier and this hydro-thermometer. The dehumidifier also monitors temperature and humidity, but if you want to turn it off sometimes, you will need this little gadget to signal to you when it should be turned on again.

The only thing I found difficult was what I had to do to calibrate it, which I actually did not do. But its readings are very close to those of my humidifier, so I assume it is just fine.

Purchased 2 of these units. They are difficult to read at most angles, best of laid flat so you can look right over top of it. They are not accurate right out of the box, at least mine were not. However, they can be calibrated.

I placed them in a small airtight container, with several 60g, boveda 72 packs. After 24 hours, one read 65, the other read 75. Calibrated the one that read 75, left the other another 12 hours. After an additional 12 hours, the second unit read 68, so I calibrated it.

After yet another 12 hours, both units read 72. Conclusion. Units are capable of being accurate, but require an initial calibration, despite manufacturers claim they are pre calibrated. I emailed the seller with concerns about the one unit reading 65, and they immediately sent a replacement.

So great customer service.

READ THIS FOR CALIBRATION: My unit did not need calibration! I followed the majority of the instructions that I found for performing the salt test. They were a bit wrong in that they instructed me to let sit for anywhere from 6-12 hours.

This hygrometer took longer. CORRECT METHOD: Add salt (1 tsp) to a small, shallow container (e. g. bottled water lid). Add several drops of distilled water to the salt so that a paste or very thick slurry is formed.

There shouldn’t be standing water above the salt, but as long as the salt is not dissolving, it should be alright. Seal salt solution in a zip-lock bag (I doubled up) with the hygrometer. LEAVE ALONE FOR 24 HOURS.

If greater or less than 75%, adjust without opening bag and leave alone for another 6 hours, at least. I originally performed this for 12 hours and I thought I had a little too much water in my salt due to it being more of a slurry than a paste, though I now realize that did not matter.

I saw the hygrometer was reading 4% under. So adjusted it by +4% at which point it began jumping around because, I presume, I was stirring the air in the bag around by moving it. After another hour, it was reading 76%.

I reset the hygrometer to +/- 0%, took the salt solution out, made a new one, replaced it, sealed the bag again, and placed the sandwich sized bag inside of a double lock freezer bag sealing them both.

24 hours later, checked the hygrometer to find it reading exactly 75%. When I placed it in my humidor, which is currently seasoning, it matched the built-in analog hygrometer at 85% within 20-30 minutes.

Now on to the review: This is a great looking classy yet modern hygrometer which, thus far, seems dead-on accurate and sensitive. From what I understand, that is very rare for non-laboratory hygrometers.

Now, I have a glass-top humidor so if I had to lift the lid to verify the humidity I may not appreciate the sensitivity of this hygrometer as it will drop within a short time upon opening the lid. Also, you do have to look at this hygrometer from straight on in order to read it, but the color-coded humidity range and gold-colored trim are appreciated touches of convenience and class.

Temperature reading is nice as well, though that’s rather expected from the current digitals. Wouldn’t purchase a different hygrometer if I had to do it over again.

The out of box accuracy was off by about 2%, but the calibration procedure is easy and effective. I used three different Boveda humidity packs to set and calibrate it, 49%, 62% and 69%. After sitting in a small, sealed container with the 62% pack for about 12 hours I was confident that the reading was stable and gave it a +2 adjustment, and then let it set for another 12 hours and verified it was reading 62%.

I then swapped out the humidity pack for a 69% and resealed the container. After another 12 hours or so it was accurately reading 69%, so a successful 2-point verification. However, my only gripe about this unit is the lack of resolution below 60%.

In the “sweet spot” it has 1% resolution, but outside 60-75% RH it drops to 5% resolution. so there really isn’t any way to accurately measure below 60% or above 75%. So for example if you are trying to measure the RH inside a safe, as opposed to a humidor, it will only give you a rough idea of the actual humidity.

I would say if this is important to you, go with the Caliber 4, not the 4R, since it displays the digital value directly. Pro’s:Looks nice and feels well built. Appears to have a glass bezel and metal ring.

Feels substantial, not like a cheap plastic toy. Easy and effective RH calibration procedure with Boveda packsCon’s:Poor resolution outside humidor rangeCan be difficult to read the display unless you are looking at just the right angleThe temperature reading on mine is about 1.

5° high and no way to adjustIt would be nice if there were a way to alternate the digital display to show either temperature or humidity, instead of being temperature only. This would alleviate the issue with low resolution of the analog display at low RH values.

2 identical hygrometers. I purchased each at different times because i couldn’t get the RH to 70 even with an over abundance of humidification devices (multiple 69%bovida packs, humidicare beads, humidicare pack AND the space sponge).

Turns out both are spot on with each other at 65% with the salt test and my humidors are a perfect 69%. I just have to remember the humidity is 10% higher than it reads.

I purchased a Xkiar digital hygrometer from lighter USA. The item was defective out of the box and I tried to contact lighter USA though eBay 3 times without a response. What a disappointment. I haven’t had time to open a claim yet but will be doing it shortly.

This hygrometer was wildly off until I took out the supplied battery and replaced it. The unit seems… fine? If I had it to do over I would like try to purchase something higher quality from Xikar.

Definately not 100% but there abouts, needs a bigger strip to attach to tanks. Maybe a small suction cup

this is a great hygromiter

Where to start. First off I got this as a gift from my wife and she did amazing as far as finding a quality humidor for the price point. It’s unbelievably easy to set up, season and maintain. The fit and finish of the box is phenomenal especially for the price, it passed the dollar bill test easily.

The hygrometer reads accurately and easily. And there is plentiful space on the inside for your cigars. Hands down the best humidor for your money, maybe even the best humidor for the size! Amazing all around!.

I ordered this for my husband for Christmas. I made a mistake on the monogram and reached out to them a few minutes later to correct it. The response time was really impressive. They confirmed it would be fixed but when it came, due to the large number of their orders, it had the incorrect monogram.

No problem! Reached out to them and they sent a new, corrected one which I received in two days! The humidor is great quality and my husband really likes the gauge on the front. Easy to season and set up.

I’m really please with the customer service AND the humidor!.

This humidor was the perfect valentines day gift as well as my first humidor. I had it as a desk accent, and really made my office click. The hygrometer reads accurately and storage is very sufficient.

The instructions are very clear and if they’re not to you, you can EASILY drop a message to this company and they’ll take care of you no problems! The humidor is well crafted and comes in a very nice wrapping that would make an excellent gift to anyone needing a humidor.

I’ve had four installed throughout the house and garage and one outdoors (properly shielded from precipitation and direct sunlight). With these I now have complete temperature and humidity data every minute for two years.

None have failed. They are quite accurate and can even be calibrated. AA batteries last 4 to 6 months. This setup allows me to gather data from upstairs with downstairs, outdoors, and garage. Alerts can be set to warn of overly hot/cold or humid/dry conditions based on your settings.

Viewing the live data in the app, I can (manually) adjust the thermostat, switch fans on/off, know when to open/close windows, etc. With the downloaded data I can fine tune a plan to best manage the heat/AC over seasons to maximize efficiency, compare weather over multiple seasons or years, to determine garden planting, etc.

Together, this has proven to be an inexpensive and effective way to be aware of crucial data within the home as a living, breathing thing in the midst of it’s micro climate, and has been an invaluable tool.

The device’s screen shows current temperature/humidity and max/min for each, the latter of which is of limited use and must be explicitly reset (I believe: since I don’t need this function I haven’t looked into it).

The app has a dashboard that shows up to 6 devices simultaneously, which is extremely convenient. Each device can be independently named (i. e. Living Room, Study, Master Bedroom, Garage, etc. ), arranged at will, and displays temp, humidity, time of last update (live), approximate battery life remaining, and whether you are in Bluetooth range (which works reliably from anywhere in our home of 2600 sqft).

Press on any device in this dashboard and you get historical plots of temp and humidity over time (you can choose the scale granularity), and also provides a button to download a time range of data for that device (or all devices) as a CSV file (which can be imported into spreadsheets, etc).

With this data I can see how often the furnace or compressor turns on, for how long, and how efficiently it heats a room (useful for determining maintenance on those expensive systems). Devices are bluetooth only, so the app updates only when you are in your home, not remotely.

The WiFi version of this device (at higher cost) would be needed for that capability. Also, in my experience, the app only works on a single phone. All in all, an inexpensive and extremely useful tool.

Bought three of them and they do just as i’d expected. Bluetooth feature is new to me and it’s useful to see how the temperatures are moving over time. Great little devices. Also, I had a small issue when ordering and it turned out to be my fault but customer services stayed with me till it was resolved.

So customer care is good too.

Easy to setup. Bluetooth, good range. I have two. Can use outside. Graphs for temp and humidity. Using with phone app.

Excellent instrument giving very accurate readings. I would anyone having humidifiers at home to purchase one from Melectonics. Thanks for your efforts to help your customers. Warm regards, Randolph Perera.

Easy to set up. Used it to measure humidity in finished basement. Seems to work fine.

I’ve had a number of indoor/outdoor thermometers over the years, starting with the old wired type where you had to figure out how to get a little probe thru the window or wall to measure outdoor temperature.

The improvement to wireless sensors was great, but a lot of them didn’t hold up very well over time. This model is easily one of the best I’ve had in terms of accuracy and overall quality. The first thing I always do when purchasing one of these devices is to power it up indoors and let it sit for a while to check out how well the indoor and outdoor readings compare when both sensors are sitting next to each other.

For this one, the two temperature measurements were within a few tenths of a degree of each other, and the humidity measurements were within 3%. Checking the temperature readings against a mercury thermometer of known accuracy, the readings were within a degree, at least at indoor temperatures.

Batteries last a long time and are easy to change out, range is sufficient to reach our chosen display location at the kitchen desk, and the touchscreen backlight comes in handy regularly when ambient lighting is pretty low at night.

The display is also large and easy to read. The backlighting relationship to the LCD display is unfortunately not what it should be in that it limits the viewing angle. While the unlighted display is great from any angle, the lighted display is almost unreadable when it’s tilted back on its stand, so you need to view it from straight ahead or above.

Not a huge deal, but it could certainly be improved. I recently purchased two more of these units to keep track of the temperature under outdoor blankets while doing some concrete and mortar work now that outdoor temps are falling below freezing at night.

They have worked great for this purpose, plus it provided an opportunity to compare the readings from three units. The readings are surprisingly consistent! Right now, with the three remote sensors sitting side-by-side for a little test (see attached photo), the outdoor temperature is reading 15.

4, 15. 4 and 16. 3 degrees F (yes it’s cold out there), and the three outdoor humidity readings are 60%, 61% and 61%. The indoor sensors, again with the units sitting side-by-side, are reading 67. 6, 67.

5 and 66. 2 deg F (yes it’s cool inside, too) and the humidity readings are 17%, 21% and 22% (pretty dry with the furnaces running so much this morning). Humidity readings in the range below about 25% are always more difficult to read, so the 5% variation is not very significant.

You could not ask for better consistency and this is a big reason for rating these things 5 stars when I would otherwise have dropped a star for the display backlight issue. Bottom line: The TP65 is the best performing wireless temp/hygrometer I’ve owned.

Accurate, nice design, large display, capable or reading up to three remote sensors. Highly recommended!.

I’m actually going to take a bit of time and write a review, because I really think this product deserves it. I’ve only had it for around two weeks, but so far, so good. I got this wireless thermometer for a bit of an unconventional purpose; as a wireless way to monitor temperature and humidity (mainly humidity) in my Crested Gecko’s vivarium.

The setup I have really doesn’t allow for devices with cords/probes, and reviews for thermometer/hygrometers that were actually made for pets were pretty dismal. So, after seeing this new ThermoPro product with great reviews, I decided to give it a try (my gecko has a pretty big viv and he loves exploring new things, so the addition of a small sensor wouldn’t bother him).

The outdoor sensor seems to be working great thus far, no major erratic swings in readings at all (unless I do something to make it change, like misting the viv). It’s waterproof, but you do need to have it upright so that water doesn’t enter the sensor at the bottom.

It has a little hole at the top that I threaded a paper clip and string through so I could hang it on a vine. It also has a bright red light that flashes every 30 seconds or so when it sends data to the main monitor, which I worried might bother my gecko, so I carefully covered the solid plastic and red light with dark painter’s tape, leaving all the sensors and compartment-opening-points still exposed, and now the light is not noticeable at all, unless you’re really hunting for it at just the right angle.

Adding the tape did not affect the temp/humidity readouts at all; they stayed the same after applying the tape as they were before. The main readout monitor itself is really nice. It took me a few tries to really get the hang of the controls, but since there’s only 3 buttons to tap, it’s not that hard.

Touch screen is hyper-sensitive, and the backlight (which I thought I would never use) actually is handy since it’s positioned in a room that gets hardly any light after sunset, and the numbers can be hard to see if I want to check them in the evenings.

But this room is exceptionally dark; the contrast on the readout is more than enough to be easily read in a normally-lit room. As far as accuracy goes, I have to say that it is accurate simply because it says the same things several of my other gauges do.

I have one mercury-style thermometer, one analog thermometer, one thermometer/humidity laser gun, and one analog hygrometer. Between all those devices, the numbers really don’t change. If anything, I would say my temp gun is the least accurate, but only because it isn’t measuring the temp of the air, but the temp of the material it’s pointed at, which varies greatly.

Therefore, its accuracy is not quite in the same category. At any rate, I just got up and checked all the gauges, and they’re identical to what this ThermoPro wireless device says. I find it hard to believe that so many different devices could all be wrong in the exact same way, so I believe this one is accurate.

Setup was fairly quick and simple, and took way less time than the directions indicated; so much so that I set it all up twice just to be sure I did it right the first time. Same results, so it looks like it’s all correct.

All in all, it’s shaping up to be a great little device, and I’m glad I got it. It gives me peace of mind to know that everything’s the way it should be in my gecko’s home with just a quick glance at the screen (which I placed on a nearby bookshelf), and I love knowing the temperature/humidity of my own home, since I did not have any sort of fancy thermostat before (old baseboard heating).

I also like knowing that multiple sensors can be registered, so if I ever want to actually put one outside, I can get one and easily do so. If anything changes, I will update this review, but as of right now, I am very happy with my purchase.

:).

After seeing so many bad reviews for clock/temp/humidity combo devices, I decided to just get a dedicated indoor outdoor thermometer, since this one was well reviewed. After using the unit for a while, I can see why.

It seems to be well built (ditto the outdoor remote) and the numbers are big and easy to read despite the overall compact size of the indoor module. The “touch screen” is quite sensitive, and you need only barely brush the buttons to activate them, which is nice since I have the indoor module propped up on a slippery surface.

There are several nice features on this for the price: temperature and humidity trend arrows for both the indoor and outdoor readings; a bright blue backlight; three channel operation; min/max settings for both all time and 24-hour periods.

Where this unit loses a few points is in the execution of the multi-channel operation and the mix/max feature. It can support up to three remote sensors, and show any one at a time, or scroll automatically through all three.

That’s super useful, but if you only have one or two sensors, it still will show the unused channel with “–” readings. The time that each channel is shown while it’s in scroll mode cannot be set; each only stays on for a few seconds.

More annoying is the min/max temperature feature. When you press the button, it defaults to the minimum and maximum for all time (which is defined by the last time you cleared the memory), which is not very useful, since it does not show a date when said min/max temps were recorded.

They could have been weeks or months ago. Press the button again and you can see the min/max temps for the last 24 hours, which is a far more handy feature and the mode I wish it’d go to first. More great features: the kickstand is handy (but only works at one angle) and there are some magnets on the back for attaching it to鈥?something metal.

Despite those minor quibbles, I’m perfectly happy with this little temperature unit. No idea how long it’ll last on the included AAA batteries, as I’ve only had the unit for a few weeks at this point.

My outdoor unit is about 30 feet away through a brick wall and wooden fence and it has not lost sync once. The indoor temperature and humidity readings are surprisingly close to other temperature units I have around the house, too.

All in all, a good product for the price.

For someone of my age, this device is a marvel of modern electronics. To be able to read temperature and humidity with good accuracy, to be able to do it remotely and record high and low values, is just amazing for a little, inexpensive gadget.

But does it really do what they claim? I have compared the indoor and outdoor sensors next to each other, and compared to the reading of our thermostat, and get agreement within 1 degree. The situation for humidity is more complicated.

If you are interested, details will follow, but my conclusion is that the accuracy is pretty good although probably not within their claimed 2% accuracy at mid-range humidity. Based on past experience, I suspect that If you require totally reliable 2% readings you will probably have to spend a few hundred dollars on a high-quality sensor.

Communication with the remote unit appears to be moderately reliable even for my particularly challenging application, where I need to get readings from inside a chicken coop that is almost entirely surrounded by wire mesh (hardware cloth) which will shield radio waves.

There were no problems at all when the sensor was outside the coop. This review is written based on 5 weeks experience with the unit. ***************Notes on humidity testing. With the two humidity sensors right to each other, I saw the readings disagree by 4% to 6% over the course of an afternoon when humidity ranged from 40 to 45%.

This indicates that at least one of the units does not reach their claimed accuracy and I tried a test in a small sealed container which included a little dish of salt slurry. This is supposed to give 75% humidity.

After 6 hours the two readings were 71% and 67%, after 25 hours it was 74% and 69%, and after another day it was 75% and 73%, which is within specifications. Presumably it took a very long time for the humidity to build up.

But 6 hours later the readings were 76% and 71%, where the low reading is out of spec. It seems as though one of the sensors is sometimes out of spec but the test was a bit ambiguous and the exact interpretation is made hazy by the limited resolution of the readout.

This review is based on 5 weeks experience with the unit.

I got one of these a few years back and have been very happy with it. It matched the humidity and temperature on an old Taylor temp and humidity gauge. You can see that gauge in the background of the picture.

Well I’m moving and our new place has a finished lower level and I’ll be running a dehumidifier down there in the Summer months to keep the humidity levels down so that we don’t get mold/mildew/musty odors.

I want to be able to measure humidity at the far ends of that area and in the middle where I plan on placing the dehumidifier. So, I ordered two more. At around $10 each, I think these are a bargain.

My first thought when the two new ones arrived was to see how they compared – see the picture with this review. Humidity shown is 56, 55, and 57. Interestingly, my 2 year old one shows 56 which matches my old Taylor.

I am assuming that one of the new ones reads 1% RH higher and the other reads 1%RH lower. This is totally acceptable for this type of gauge for what I’m using it for. I rarely use the temperature measurement but 74.

7, 74. 8, and 74. 1 are all reasonable readings. I’m so glad that I got the additional two gauges and they will be a big help in figuring out where to place my dehumidifier and what to set it at to assure my lower level is kept at a low enough humidity level to avoid any issues.

Update: I forgot to mention the humidity and temperature range feature. I think that this can be quite useful. Once you put the battery in and the unit starts, it will keep track of the lowest and highest reading for both humidity and temperature.

Now, let’s say that you forgot to turn your dehumidifier on in early Summer – it might get as high as 70 or 80%RH. So you turn the dehumidifier on and it brings things down. You don’t care about that high reading any more, but you might want to see what sort of range running the dehumidifier is giving you.

Just push the C/F setting button on the back and hold for 2 seconds – that will reset the high and low for both humidity and temperature – very handy feature! I saw one review that said that it couldn’t be re-set.

I’m thinking that person didn’t read the owners manual. 😉 You could also re-set it by simply removing the battery and then putting it back in, but the 2 second button press is the way to go. Aug30, 2022I’m adding an update to this review – I ordered another gauge, you can see I like these.

😉 However I had a problem with it – it reads 4% lower than my other ThermoPro’s – see second picture – I marked that one with a small piece of green tape. I had this problem with one I ordered a few months back- returned it and reordered and the next one was OK.

And that said, I have had no problem at all having them last. Some reviewer have reported failures after a short time. Some of the ones I have are around 2 years old now.

I don’t have equipment to check accuracy. It seems to be working great. Stays attached to magnet base. Easy to read digital dial. Clearly marked numbers with color coded zones.

I tested these hygrometer, and both tested out at 70% a perfect score.

Its well made, and it looks great. I’m having some difficulty calibrating it. I’m still working on it…

Fantastic, accurate device to monitor your home’s temp and humidity from anywhere! This is much better than bluetooth-only monitors that you can only check if you’re within bluetooth range. Because it uses your wifi, you can use the Govee Home app to check from anywhere in the world! Very solid at this price!.

Suggestion: the easiest way to install a spigot on a closed top barrel is after you drill a hole, insert a piece of string or wire through faucet hole then out top bung hole. Slide internal parts of faucet down the string to position through the bottom hole.

Attach outer part of faucet snugly.

These cushions are nicer than I expected for the price. Nice memory foam covered with good quality fabric. Im very pleased with them.

I’ve bought two of these so far and it’s the only analog hygrometer I will recommend because it’s accurate and is already calibrated, tough and sturdy, and easy to use since it detaches readily with a magnetic back affixed by strong adhesive tape.

It has all the functions I could expect and the quality, too. I’ve used one in a 50 count humidor, a 25 count travel humidor, and a larger 250 count cooler and they work perfectly. This hygrometer will react to changes quickly enough to suit my needs, usually within 10 seconds or so.

I test its functioning by setting it in my humidor, waiting 15 minutes, taking it out, setting next to my room RH hygrometer which is digital, and watching it. The Cigar Oasis hygrometer’s needle will pop back up in little jumps to the same RH as my digital one.

Both of these have arrived calibrated, so I don’t get all the talk about calibration, though it is nice to know and this hygrometer is adjustable. This is the best analog hygrometer, in my opinion.

I was fully prepared to pay $25-$40 on a digital hydrometer as long as it was accurate. However, I was unable to find one without a long list of reviews touting inaccuracy and warranty issues. I decided to roll the dice on this cheap analog one.

I figured at the very worst I would have to watch a dozen videos on how to calibrate it, but much to my surprise, those fears were completely unwarranted! Straight out of the box I put it in a slurry test and sealed it up.

Within hours it was reading 75! I went ahead and left it for a full 24hrs to double check but it was always within 74-76. I am very happy with its aesthetic, accuracy, and lack of maintenance. Will do another slurry test in a few months to see if it holds up.

Excellent hygrometer. Looks good and feels solid. According to the salt test, the calibration out of the box was only 3 percent off. A slight turn of the screw in the back and I got it down to 1 percent, which is more than enough for my applications.

Much better than the junk I saw at Canadian Tire, which had as much as a 30 percent variation between different units of the same model and no calibration adjusments.

Recently got into the cigar hobby via my son-in-law, and noticed nearly every cigar I purchased myself and stored in one of those humidified baggies with a humidity pack in it would err on the side of almost bitter to me — I almost quit my new hobby!! Yet — nearly every cigar I shared with my son-in-law was much more flavorful and enjoyable.

Turns out, the difference was his humidor!! So, I shopped around and [unknowingly] wound up purchasing the exact same one as he had months earlier — the Renzo Glass Top. WOW what a difference in enjoying the cigar experience.

The initial setup and seasoning process was simple, and within a couple of days I was back to giving what I thought were subpar brand cigars another chance! The box is elegant, the accessory drawer is handy, and the digital display and glass top let me know my sticks are well take care of.

Fast forward several months, and I pull the trigger on another Renzo Glass Top for my best friend who also recently got back into cigars. He couldn’t be more pleased! Great products — Great service — Overall great experience!! Highly recommended!!.

I received one of these humidors a few years back as a gift from my wife. After a couple years with no issues, and almost flawless hold at 70/70 I started to experience an issue with humidity dropping to about 60.

I was deployed at the time, so told my wife a few things to try and get the humidity back up to no avail. When I got back I tried everything I knew to do, but again, no luck. I contacted Case Elegance via email because I really liked the product and asked if they could do anything to help, despite the fact my humidor was past the one year warranty.

Case Elegance was absolutely awesome. They were quick to communicate with me and after a couple emails and a few photos I had a replacement humidor mailed to me free of charge. Full disclosure, it turned out there must have been a spill I never noticed in the humidor that caused some warping.

It’s an amazing product produced by an amazing company that I will stick with and recommend to everyone I can.

IšverstiShow in original languageI have 3 of these and they are very good relative humidity and temperature meters. These use one AA battery and have a very long battery life. Placed side by side, these meters often read the same value, or within 3% RH of each other, and the temperature reading is always exactly the same.

The indicated RH is always very close to what I measure with a sling psychrometer – a very accurate RH measuring device which is not convenient to use. Please note that the specs say +/- 4% RH accuracy (how close it is to a “true” value of RH) and this is typical for an instrument of this type; but side by side instruments COULD show 50% RH and 58% RH and still meet this specification.

I do not see this spread in values – it is a worst case spec. I find the readings are always close to the true (sling psychrometer) value. I would highly recommend this meter for anyone who needs a general purpose Humidity and Temperature meter.

It has both a flip-out stand and a magnet on the back for easy use in different applications. It is settable to either C or F temperature scales.

IšverstiShow in original languageSeems sort of accurate. At least I verified that humidity was low in house and when I got a humidifier it went up and it showed that on screen with percentage and picture say low.

No more static shocks from dry apartment. Temperature is dead on the monies accurate. Getting the battery cover off was a challenge though. Just too smooth and couldn’t get a grip on it to slide off.

But if the batteries last a year, then who really cares. It is easy to read and magnet seems to hold on door frame. Steel door frame here in Condominium. It can be mounted on a desk top by pulling spring clip backwards.

Now to look for meter with a pigtail for outside temperature. Wireless ain’t an option here in Condominium for steel studs and aluminum foil on insulation kills a wireless signals including Wi-Fi. KB1UKU.

IšverstiShow in original languageThermometer is fine and compares well with all my other thermometers. Hygrometer seems to read quite low when in the 30s maybe 10 to 20% too low compared to others I own and certainly much lower that my wet and dry bulb hygrometer.

It is of course much harder for a device to read relative humidity compared to temperature. It works for example in a bathroom after a bath so the “low” “OK” and “high” readings are generally helpful.

This is a very high-quality humidor that maintains humidity extremely well. It was packaged to withstand the harshest of package handlers. The Spanish cedar was seasoned within a few days using the instructions provided.

I have over 75 sticks (various sizes), and I think that is very close to its functional limit. The drawer is lined with a soft, quality material and is amazingly functional. I’ve owned a smaller 25 stick desktop humidor from Case Elegance and loved it.

This Company makes quality products. The only thing I don’t like is the comment they make about Boveda packs not working well in their testing. hogwash. Their cigar solution and gel packs are overpriced and while the tray they fit in is well designed and neatly embedded into the base of the humidor, it’s quickly buried under 50+ sticks.

It led to the bottom section of my humidor being over-humidified, while the top tray section was under-humidified. (I kept watch on this for days with three calibrated hygrometers. ) I trashed their humidification tray and replaced with two Boveda packs, one in the bottom section and one at the top.

Humidity in both sections is now locked in and doesn’t fluctuate at all. For reference, I live in Texas and my house stays around 55% RH.

Here is a walkthrough of my experience so far: My wife purchased this as an early Christmas gift and it arrived yesterday. Unboxing is a religious experience. Packaging is elegant and protects the humidor more than adequately.

Laying eyes on this humidor for the first time caused my jaw to hit the floor. I had seen photos and picked it out, but the pictures just don’t do it justice. The black piano finish causes this thing to shine in all the right ways, accentuating the wood grain perfectly.

Construction and hinges are made extremely well. I began seasoning the humidor last night and it is already at 66%, so it seems to be sealed and holding well. I used to keep my humidor in a cabinet of the entertainment center of my bedroom.

The only complaint I have is I now have to find another place to store the new one because this thing is too gorgeous to keep stored away. If you are looking for a sleek, aesthetically pleasing, higher capacity humidor, get this thing on the way to your house.

I got this as a gift for my Husband’s retirement from the Army. He absolutely loves it. It is big enough to hold his growing cigar collection and he really likes the separate drawer where he can keep his cigar accessories.

I had it monogrammed but needed some assistance as I want 3 separate lines. Jon with customer service was extremely responsive and helpful with this. It arrived in a reasonable amount of time and was packed incredibly well.

I know this will be a gift that he will be able enjoy for years to come. I would definitely recommend.

TranslateShow in original languageCette station météo reçue dans les délais (Un point positif tout de même !!) a été vite mise “au rancard” car impossibilité malgré plusieurs tentatives de se synchroniser avec le capteur extérieur.

Possédant d’autres stations, il était facile de comparer les températures affichées. Les deux autres en ma possession : OK Décalage de température et hygrométrie énorme. Je la voulais petite sans fioritures pour une chambre.

Résultat : Très négatif. Pour information la station et le capteur extérieur distant seulement de 2 mètres !!!.

TranslateShow in original languageL’appareil est très simple à utiliser, genre plug & play. Il suffit de mettre les piles. S’assurer toutefois de placer l’émetteur & le récepteur à 1,5 m d’intervalle au début pour permettre la syntonisation de départ (30 minutes).

Les données sont semblables à 0,5° de différence près pour la température et 1% pour l’humidité. Précis, donc. D’autre part la liaison hertzienne est puissante (plusieurs murs traversés sans problème de réception).

Hélas, et c’est ce qui justifie ma note moyenne, les températures affichées sont surévaluées de 2°C, ce qui fait beaucoup, surtout quand on ne peut pas les régler ! Dommage.

TranslateShow in original languageSobre, ce sont les température et pourcentage d’humidité qui sont lisibles de loin. Si le petit boîtier extérieur est placé dans un endroit ombragé, les données sont correctes.
