Good afternoon, one and all!
I wanted to share yet another pleasant experience. I purchased a remote hygrometer set from Amazon, brand is
X-Sense, and it's been an easy setup.
It comes with a base station and some Hygrometers. They have 2 different models of hygros...one with a display and one that's more of a sensor-only. I ended up buying 2 of the display models for my igloos.
Setup is easy. Download the app, plug the base station power in, press the button and the app should see it. Done.
Adding the sensors was a matter of pressing the sensor button twice to put it in discovery mode. Then add them to the app. The app does a great job of walking you through it.
When setup in the salt box, they all averaged 74%RH, and calibration is super simple.
The thing I love most is it provides historical data, as well as custom alerts for out of spec conditions.

I'm very impressed for the price point.

I've used Inkbird and Govee with good results. Inkbird seems better on battery life as well as customer service, but Govee is usually cheaper. Also have some cigar oasis type units for my bigger cabinets that have a wifi connection and an app.
