so my cheap made-in-china digital thermometer/hygrometersays my RH is 41%. the digital hygrometer on my humidifier says it's 60%, and the cheap made-in-china analog thermometer/hygrometer says it's closer to 70%.

i don't trust any of them.

anybody know of a reasonably affordable and accurate digital hygrometer that takes into account air temp?

I have that one too, but I want another one to compare the readings to as it seems to read a few degrees high but it could actually be an inaccuracy with my home's thermostat I suppose? It says 75 degrees in my living room but my thermostat on the wall reads closer to 71-72 degrees. Not sure which one I am supposed to trust here, it reads up to as high as 82 degrees in my veg area under a non-air cooled 600W Metal Halide with a good 20 inches or so distance from it. That could very well be accurate though I don't know I just need another one to compare it to so I can be sure.
