These have to be the least accurate things I have ever seen.

The rectangular one is accurate or accurate enough and has been what I used but I noticed files all had cutouts for these round hygrometers…

Well from my 6 pack 1 is within a margin of error to even be useful.

I get they aren’t expensive but seems like a waste of money for this bad.

    You get your humidity down to less than 10%? Or still literally treating it like a binary thing and it’s just reading way under real?

    I am at about 25% relative humidity and it’s showing as a 1 in the ams sensor so 10% seems impressive even though I’m not using much desiccant.

      I have an aqara temp/humidity sensor in my AMS. The hygrometer (rectangular type) shows 10% and aqara shows 19%.

      I’ve also just been using the hygrometer as a binary if it is > 10% then I change media.

      Typing all this up made me realize I need to just set an alert for the aqara to just tell me if it jumps above 20%.
