in General Discussion

Well... I looked in my humidor on Friday and noticed my hygrometer display was blank... WEIRD!!!!! Got a new battery and swapped it out. Its toast. :-( I had a good 4 year run with it. lol I have a small dish of water and my 65%rh  Heartfeldt bead tubes. They hold my levels perfectly so im not too worried about how the humi is doing.

So I need a new one! Im looking to keep it under $25 not including shipping....Suggestions? I saw a few options here on CCOM. but wanted to hear from you guys.

    WEIRD!!!!!

    one of mine just died about 2 weeks ago.  i replaced the batteries, recalibrated, adjusted the dial, etc and it was still way off compared to my good ones.
    had it for probably close to 5 years so figured i got my $$ worth and tossed it.

    replaced it with the exact same kind, because heck for $12 on amazon & free shipping with prime, you can't go wrong.  http://www.amazon.com/Quality-Importers-HygroSet-Hygrometer-Humidors/dp/B000H6CZQE/

    Walmarts has one for about $7.  I've had two of them for several years and they work fine.  Look in the section where they have the thermostats.

    I recommend  PMing some botl and getting it for free.  Only the true botls though.  Nothing beats free :)

    Broffee Bean ..... dude, my hygro has been out of commission for a year.  Top of the list bruh.

    It's probably just a battery.  So whoever is going to send me one, a battery will do. Thanks again
