    Humidities?

    My tub is staying between 70 and 80% humidity, this is a little high, right?

    What would be the best way to bump it down, without hurting the temps?

    Its a little higher than I run but you could either add a couple more holes or put a fan in the room.

    Right now I have 3 or 4 holes on each long side of the tub, just under the lid.
    For lowering humidity, would adding a few in the lid help better?

    Put more holes in the side not the lid. Heat rises so the heat would go right out your lid. Just add a few more holes to the sides, test the humidity if it's still to high just add a few more. Eventually it'll get to where you want it.

    I have a lot of holes along the front of my tubs. Let me see if I can find a good pic....

    Edit, Found one, look at the tub above the open one. Remember you can always cover up the holes with duct tape if you need to raise the humidity.
