    Hi y'all,

    What's everybody's favorite humidity gauge? I need to replace the one in my tuning bag. Already have one in my shop, but want a smaller one for bringing around with me. And accuracy is important, but hoping to not spend $80-$100 bucks. Suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Jeff,

    As mentioned in a previous post, I have been satisfied with the HOBO
    MX1101, but it's higher priced than what you want to spend. Hey, the
    good stuff usually costs more!

    This little pocket hygrometer/thermometer is my favorite.
    Mine is about 6 years old and tests well when compared to other hygrometers.
    On sale for $25.

    The Smarthy has interesting features, and is very small, but it takes over the microphone of your phone or pad.
