Digital hygrometer issue.

The salt test should take about 12+ hours in a stable environment. I don't really trust the salt tests myself. I calibrated my hygro with a calibration kit from Boveda, which was easy to use and was accurate.

+1. Agree with all of this

In my experience, the salt test needs 36 hours before the humidity stops fluctuating and is stable; even if you buy the Boveda packs, the directions say to wait 36 hrs

For the price of the Boveda cal kit it is worth the piece of mind that comes with it. I never end up with the same reading when I tried the salt test so I never use it anymore, only Boveda.

Agreed on the 36 hours and I don't use a baggie I prefer a tupperware with a good seal.

AntiClimacus:

Sweet, thanks for the responses guys. I just ordered the calibration kit, so it should be a pretty sweet deal. However, now since I've ordered the kit, I need to calibrate the hygrometers, what should I do with my cigars meanwhile, now since I can't read the meters? Keep them in my humi? or just put them somewhere else?

If you order from Ccom, they ship with the humi-pillows, so just keep the cigars in the bag.
