Springfield Hygrometer ($6.47) from Wal-Mart

Springfield Precise Temp Hygrometer
Price: $6.47
Place: Local Wal-Mart



I picked it up at my local Wal-Mart near the paints, glues, etc. section.

It requires a 1 AAA battery (not included) to operate. It has a magnetic strip on the back of the pager-like clip to attach it to metal surfaces. It also has a pin designed to turn the clip into a stand. It has a button to change the Temp reading from F to C. It also has a Max/Min button. Do you basic salt test and you should be good to go.








After the salt test:

The humidity was on target at 75%.







Verdict:

I'm finding it to be more precise than my $22 Hygroset adjustable hygrometer. For $6.47 you really can't lose.

+ It's cheap and you can find it locally.
