    What gauge is more accurate for RH?

    All three of these hygrometer's have different readings. Just wondering what everyone's opinion is on which one is going to be the most accurate/reliable.

    1st is the
    Zilla Reptile Terrarium Thermometer & Humidity Gauge
    https://www.amazon.com/Zilla-Reptile...ds=zilla+gauge


    2nd
    Pet Magasin Digital Thermometer and Hygrometer
    https://www.petmagasin.com/products/digital-thermometer-and-hygrometer-for-terrariums-and-aquariums


    This guy reads usually high and sometimes almosts maybe too high idk...or it could be accurate again why i am asking this question

    3rd
    Zoo Med HygroTherm Humidity and Temperature Controller
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0019IHK9Q/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1


    The is the most expensive by far cause of its features but seems to be accurate or at least i sure hope so for the price i paid.

    Yes i have all three setup in my tank trying to get my BEL's setup just right. She is a happy girl as she eats without any issues and is always in her hide and drinks water very frequently. I did just have to treat her for mites which i am guessing they came with her from the company that sold her to me. Either way it was very minor and she did an amazing job while my wife and I tweezed them off and sprayed her with reptile mite products. That is irrelevant tho im just proud of myself for being a first time snake owner and being able to overcome an issue like that on my own. Wanted to share.

    So please any help on which gauge is gonna give me the most accurate reading is much appreciated.

    Also I have my uth which gives her a hot spot under her hide around 88 Deg. F but i cannot get the ambiant air temp above 75. unless i use a higher wattage bulb but then it drys up the air and causes to low of RH readings.......
