Others have noted that they got units which didn’t agree, making the accuracy suspect. Mine is spot-on in agreement with a higher-end electronic humidification unit that is calibrated to 70% for a cigar humidor. The unit is very small and works well in a travel humidor as well as the larger ones.

I purchased this about a year or so ago. While I loved the size of the unit, I had problems with it turning itself off intermittently. Finaly about a couple of weeks ago it went completely dead so I replaced it’s battery. It had some life for about a day and then quite working again. I am now shopping for a new unit, but I won’t be buying this one again!

There’s a reason this Hygrometer is called Fluker’s, because it’s a “Fluke” if you can get one that actually works. With their lack luster customer service, you are better off getting the Caliber III digital hygrometer/thermometer from Western Humidor and be done with it or at bare minimum get a Hygroset II thats adjustable.

I hesitated before buying this product and the cause is the dimension mentioned in the description “4.5 x 0.5 x 6 inches” but when i received it it was small and light, actually it was 1.5 x 0.5 x 6 inches. worked fast and accurate as mentioned, no calibration nor maintenance required…
highly recommended either for pet environment control or cigar humidor…

Nice size and appearance; easy to read and use; nice functions. I bought six of these, but found them extremely variable between units. Over two degrees temperature difference and 3% humidity difference between the six units. They are labeled for use in reptile/amphibian terrariums, so perhaps in this environment a little variability doesn’t matter. I would not recommend them for inside incubators where accuracy is more critical.
