Perfect 5 by .. J. M. Usrey (Raleigh, NC USA)
I used the Boveda One-Step Calibration to see how accurate this hygrometer is and the Caliber III was dead on. What you see is the actual humidity rating. I have used other hygrometers before, but this is the most accurate one I have come across.

Excellent hygrometer for guitar cases 5 by .. Acoustic Guitar Player ()
I bought this hygrometer after a lot of research. I use it to monitor the humidity level in my acoustic guitar cases. The hygrometer is compact (fits nicely in guitar cases), is easy to read, and has the nice feature of a record of highs and lows. It is very responsive, in fact I bought two (two guitars!) and tested them side by side, and they basically changed simultaneously. If you pick it up, within seconds the recorded humidity level changes just from the moisture of your hand! It has the industry reputation for being the most accurate hygrometer, and my experience bears that reputation out. I highly recommend this hygrometer for acoustic guitar owners, though for whatever reason it is typically just listed for cigar humidors - guitar makers, dealers, and players should all take notice.

No complaints 5 by .. Angela Ross (Tucson, AZ USA)

Simple but does the job. I got one of the calibration kits where you put the hygrometer in a bag which creates a certain humidity that you can compare to the reading on the hygrometer. The hygrometer seemed to be right on. I like that it saves high and low temperature and humidity.

EXTREMELY ACCURATE! Buying A Second Unit 5 by .. Alex H ()
I tested this hygrometer in a Humidipak Calibration Kit that is exactly 75.5% Relative Humidity. This unit displayed between 75 & 76% which is pretty much dead-on accurate! It only shows in 1 point increments not tenths which is just fine. I was surpised since it only costs $20 and its as accurate as the professional testing equipment. I am currently using this inside my cigar humidor but will purchase a second one for our bedroom.

Finally a low cost and accurate humidity monitor! 5 by .. phOtOcat (Clemson, SC, USA)
I needed to monitor the humidity in my darkroom for making platinum/palladium as well as other "alternative" process prints in which the humidity level could seriously influence the outcome. I bought one meter after another, all 5 of them gave different readings, some wildly so. Not inexpensive either.

Someone recommended the Caliber III and for under $20 it was a great find: accurate, fast response time, small and unobtrusive. Apparently cigar lovers knew about it way before photographers.
