Cigarmedics HumidiMeter | Is it worth it?

[fkizdi]

Does anyone have experience with the HumidiMeter device?

• Do you have to calibrate it on a regular basis?
• How accurate do you feel it is against how you monitor your humidity in your humidor (electronic, boveda, gel, etc)?
• Have you found actual use cases where it helps you decide whether to smoke a stick or not?

I normally store about 20 in desktop and then season all my sticks in a handful of 'pelican' style dry boxes with boveda packs.

Thanks cabaiguan juan for the recommendation!

Not quite looking for a humidor hygrometer - i have a handful of xikar ones - more so looking to see if this single cigar tester is worth it.

Govee and Sensor push are what about everyone here has. I think a few guys have Boveda butlers.

I don't understand this part at all. So you are saying you keep 20 cigars in a desktop humidor and anything else you have in travel humidors?

I normally keep 20-30 in a desktop - these are the ones i reach for on the daily and then backfill.

Then I season boxes and others in larger 'pelican' style cases (I get them free from work) > they are trunk size ones, not travel size.

I think you may be over thinking it a bit... Just my opinion

You're probably right...I definitely over index on the kit and gadgets in my other hobbies too.

SensorPush or Govee.....reasonably priced, full featured, used by lots of guys here. If you don't need network connectivity, the inexpensive Govee is pretty much a no-brainer:

....you do salt test them before putting them in service, correct..??

I could see how this would benefit someone without a dry box, but it’s not something that I would use. Also, according to most reviews, the readings are all over the place… Use a dry box @ 60% humidity, and you are good to go.
