if its accurate and consistant, then it is good.

Junkman: I have an Acu-rite and have been using it for about 6 months. Have run several tests and it consistently reads approx 5% RH on the low side. Now that I have 2 humidors I recently purchased the Extech TH433 which will handles up to 6 wireless remote transmitters. So far I am very pleased with its performance. The feature I like the most is not having to open the humidors to check the RH.

Junkman: I have an Acu-rite also and mine reads 7%rh on the low side everytime. So as long as you can do a salt test and make sure you know how much it is off, then you should be fine. Unfortunetly mine is not adjustable. Check yours out to see if it is.
