I recently purchased a 125 count humidor off of eBay that came with a humidifier and an analog hygrometer. I did the wet towel test and it only read 80% instead of 96% like it should. However, I can't properly calibrate the hygrometer because it has no screw on the back to adjust the dial. Is there another way to calibrate it or do I need to buy a new (digital) hygrometer?
you can just do it in your head. you know its reading 16% too low
I'm not familiar with the towel test. Below is the guide that helped me.Quote:

Analog hygrometers are usually off. The one that came with my humidor is off by 5%. I purchased a round digital hygrometer from heartfelt, it's adjustable and works great. I would recommend. Pick up some beads while you're there too.

I highly recommend a digital Hygrometer. My analog hygro is off by 10%. It's just added peace of mind having one!
And let me be the first to say...
GET BEADS!

Just use the beads. They are a complete humidification system.Quote:
