    Humidity

    Where do y'all get your hygrometers? Or, what is the best tool (and brand of said tool) to use? Do I have to order it via Internet?

    Thanks.

    They are all kinda junky unless you pay big money.

    Check out Amazon and look for Western Digital brand. $6-$12.
    I have a few and they are all within 5% of each other.

    How do you test if they are measuring correctly?

    Re: Humidity

    I get mine from pet smart but I find the best are the combo thermometer and hygrometer, its a little more expensive but it gives u both readings digitally so its easy to know. It also shows you the maximum and minimum of both. To test if its measure correctly humidity wise I couldn't tell you i can usually feel the difference though if it says 80% if you put your hand it you can usually feel the difference to that of 50%. The digital i find to be very accurate.
