Just a question or two...

I picked on up for $12 and it holds humidity perfectly, good seal (except sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and the lights on so you gotta kinda slam it), and the digital read on the outside is accurate if you're doing a 1% for 1% trade off. Meaning when the digital gauge reads 37* the hygro i put inside reads 65* if the outside is 36* the inside is 64*.

And the questions...

Does anyone else use this humi for over flow? Thoughts on it?

Most importantly, does anyone know if there is a way to adjust that outter hygro?

yea I read that, my only real issue with it is the digital hygro on the outside. I just use if for over flow really.

Yea I had been watching ebay for a while but they were all going off out of my price range. When I walked into my home town b&m before going back to school they were selling it after they had sold all the singles out of it. They didn't really know what it was worth I don't think. Deffinatly lucked out.

The outer hygros are not adjustable. CAO says a mistake was made in production and there is no fix, but they'll send you a hygro for the inside if you ask them.

The free hygro isnt much better because it isnt adjustable and mine came in and was off by quite a bit

I've got one and it will not get above 60% but since that is what I prefer, it works perfectly. They come with a zip case with handles so it makes a great traveldor. The hygro is dead-on on mine.

I would but in reality I have plenty of hygros already so I don't feel the need to take a free one from them just bc it's there. Especialy since I didn't support their company by buyig a full box of cigars, just the empty one. If they were offering to swap out the display for a working one then maybe but I feel wrong taking advantage of that when I have no need.
