I was going to use this with the Zoo med nt 3 terrarium.
When I first got the package the room temperature seemed slightly higher than indicated by my digital thermometer.
After I installed it into the terrarium, the temperature was still showing higher than it actually was (I have 2 other independent digital thermometers installed in the terrarium at the same level and area as a back up to see if one goes whack)
Next, the humidity measure was also way off, my terrarium needs to maintain high humidity (90%+) both of my other humidity measures agreed that humidity was kept at or over 90% while this product jumped between 80% – 50%.
In my opinion this product is way over priced and does not live up to its promises, just go digital (buy a couple units to make sure they agree on temperature and humidity levels if you’re paranoid like me on reliablity)

I was very pleased with the purchase and handling of my recent order.
The gauges are good quality and the price made them a great value.

Great product. Im using it consistently and holds up to the high humidity environment. Easy to read. Holds well to the enclosure via velcro pads that allow for product removal for cleaning.
