I always thought that the colder at container got the less humidity their would be. This I thought was why they do not recomend putting cigars in the fridge. I was wondering if the fact that being at 68 degrees temp was changing the RH reading. I will now try the Humidipak one-step calibration kit to see what that reads. I am just concerned that if it reads lets say 72% RH at 68 degrees temp, am I really getting true accuracy if I adjust the hygrometer to 75 % RH
