Humidimeter

The Humidimeter Arrived yesterday, and I just so happened to have been re-doing my hygrometer in the box experiment already, so probed the uncut head of one and it measured exactly what my hygrometer was reading., 60%, after only a week at most in a 65% container. The fact they matched exactly leads me to believe that both are relatively good ways to see when new arrivals are reading to smoke, vs waiting an arbitrary amount of time.

The low rh of the cigars doesn't surprise me at all as it spent 3 weeks in transit from the middle east, and was not sealed in any way or had any type of humidifier with it, so seems pretty reasonable it would be low.

Fwiw, I also probed the foot, and the probes were very loose in the filler, and read 10% lower, so I'm firmly in the probe the uncut head camp.

Great little tool
