humidity: no ventilation at night ?

haven't tested this yet but was hoping for feedback first.
the idea is to save electricity by turning off ventilation during the night cycle,

if the vents are turned off about 15 minutes after the light and during the rest of the night cycle, will the humidity almost definitely get too high by morning?

You can buy humidity sensors that will turn on the exhaust only when necessary if you want to save a little power but do not want the humidity too high.

mine is set to 15 minutes after it goes off, then for twice for 15 mins every 4 hours, then 30 mins before they come on again so the ac can cool the room before the lights come on. fuck it haha

any suggestions on where to purchase a controller, to switch fans on/off according to humidity levels?

seeing lots of glorified controllers for $300+, but thats for temp/humidity/co2. i just need humidity.

I wouldn't do it late into the flowering period as you will run the risk of causing bud rot.
