    Aren't all hygrometers wireless??? Are you referring to these being self calibrating???

    The Xikar one is pretty pricey and new. There are ones on Amazon I was looking into with a better price point, and some have a calibrate feature. I have had zero luck with these self-calibrate hygro's personally. Still looking for some input from humidor users.

    Xikar Puro-temp is garbage.

    Honestly, any of the older model Xikars with a calibrate function seem to be just fine. I had the puro-temp and Xikar replaced it 3 times until i finally just got a refund. none of them worked right. This so called "self calibration" is where the issues are.

    I updated the Arduino thread and my Windsor build thread.  I just mistakenly put something here in the wrong thread.

    I picked up one of these for $20.00

    I am a happy man. You have made me very grateful. For this is the very first time that the Crown Jewels have ever been adequately & deliriously praised by an unprejudiced person. Still it is the cigars' own fault that this is so for it is a cigar which excites envy & jealousy in the smoker because he knows & feels the truth of which you have said; that there is no other cigar that is just like it. There are cigars which resemble it but only in appearance, not in spirit & not in the ability to dare & do. There is no other cigar that can make a person want to go away & get by himself & think this life over & wonder if it is altogether worth while. I will send you some more when you get out. Let me know. Any man of fine intelligence who is acquainted with Crown Jewels prizes them above any other gems & saves them & hoards them. I gave Harry Rogers a box two years ago & he has them yet. Let me know when you are out.

    I use those in my grow rooms, I placed them in front of a webcam, I login with TeamViewer on my phone and I can see the temperature and humidity of all 4 rooms.
    Got them at Walmart for twenty bucks.

    @dirtdude It's on the ballot here in California too. They say if it passes it will generate $1 Billion in tax revenue for the state
