Question Quality Digital Hygrometers

Looking to buy a decent digital hygrometer for under $25. Can anyone suggest a few to look at? Just need it to display humidity and temp. I've seen quite a few in the catalogs but am wondering if some of them are much better than others.

Thanks!

Re: Quality Digital Hygrometers

I purchased the $20 Radio Shack model. It works great, and it's about the size of a box of Tic-Tacs.

Re: Quality Digital Hygrometers

Someone had found a digital at Wal-mart and seemed to be happy with it. Maybe you could track him down. I am happy with the ones I got at Radio Shack but heard somewhere that they were going to be discontinued.

Check out www.littlehavanacigars.com
They seem to have some reasonable deals. I was thinking of giving one of their models a try.

Re: Quality Digital Hygrometers

Another Radio Shack hygro user here.

Mike's has one labeled as Prometheus brand now for $30. I bet you it is still made in China though. I would look for that Wal Mart one (I recall it being $12 or $15 when I read about it), and if you can't find it there the Rat Shack model has served me well.
