Hey Guys,

Looking for an opinion on calibration method. I just recieved a new Xikar digital Hygro, and am curious if one of the above mentioned methods is any better than the other.

I bought a one step calibration kit with it, but am just curious if I should put that aside and go with the traditional salt test?

One difference I see is that the one step kit takes 24 - 36 hrs, where as according to the salt test instructions that came with the Hygro, it notes 4 hours.

Any thought guys?
