this is also true - it takes forever for these guys to readjust to changes in ambient RH.

upon checking again today, the 2 readings are showing between 5-10 % differences from one another. i wouldn't mind fixed variances but the inconsistent swings are telling me at least 1 of the units is of poor quality and not worthy to be inside my humidors =/

my 2 cents...
