    What to use?
    I have those things from walmart that read out the humidity and the temp.

    I don't know what to use to hold them onto the glass, i don't want to use tape, because i don't know if that's bad for them or not, what would work best and safe for my BP?

    Look for some of those double sided sticky things, kinda like on the back of those little dial thermometers. I forgot for the life of me what they're called.

    It's kinda like Poster tack only a little stronger

    (something like this http://www.amazon.com/Command-Adhesi...629386&sr=1-22 )

    Hope that helps

    Or heck, go buy some of those heat/humidity dials, and just pull that sticky stuff off and use it!

    Just gab a roll of velcro and there you go.

    I tried velcro, these things are to heavy, they won't keep them up.

    You bought Acu-Rites? Mine hold up fine with velcro dots.

    If you buy heavier grade velcro (it comes in small rolls) and put a strip of it across the top front of the Acu-Rite (above the readout screen) it should hold. Occasionally you might need to replace the velcro due to the humidity of the enclosure affecting it but it usually lasts for ages.

    I took one of those little suction cup things off of a razor holder that was in my shower and it works great. It fits right into where you would hang the acurite on a nail.
