Electrinic Humidifier Question
Hello,
I bought a 250 count humidor about five weeks ago, and filled it to max. At first I used crystals and regular humidifiers to control the RH, but I noticed that it wasn't doing the job, so I purchased an electronic humidifier with fan kit.
There are four shelves in the humidor, with gaps in each shelf. I placed the e-humidifier and fan on the bottom, pointing up through the gaps in each shelf.
The problem I'm having is that while the RH level on the e-humidor is reading 70%, my digital hydrometer readings are far lower btwn 62%-65% - even when the two are aligned next to each other.
I'm guessing that it could be a couple of things:
1. The e-humidifier is defective and/or
2. I did not season the humidor, in which case it will take several weeks to respond.
Even if the problem is the seasoning or lack of, the e-humidor doesn't seem to be making a difference.
Attached is a pic, I would appreciate any advice.
Thanks!
Dirk
