Time for an update!
I've bought some units from Wirelesstags.net
Govee:
Temperature average (5 units) -0.24
Humidity average: -3.24
There's a massive difference between unit 1 and unit 5.
I'm not too happy with the accuracy of these. I'd rate them a 7/10.
I just can't confidently say go ahead...
Update:
Xiaomi is rubbish with stock firmware.
Unfortunately, I'm not at all interested in doing a "home assistant" setup at present.
So Xiaomi has been sent to someone who will use it.
Sensorpush:
48 hours after I put it in a Boveda calibration kit I calibrated it to 75%.
It's now back in the...
Further update:
Xiaomi with custom firmware (no edits to any settings) seems more accurate than without.
Unfortunately, the deal-breaker is the fact the app doesn't work with the Xiaomi unit itself having custom firmware.
There is a way to have it read using an app - but it involves having "home...
Govee's:
±3% seems right.
Calibrated to 75% after 3 days. Moved to a 65% fresh Boveda pack and it's within ±3%.
I'm very anal, so I'll most likely use Govee's as a reference.
Inkbird:
Too much variation on the 2 different units I have.
I gave up keeping them the same. But both units are again...
What I've done:
Bought 5 Govee's.
Bought 2 different Inkbirds.
Bought 1 Sensorpush.
Initial thoughts:
The Inkbirds are always off a bit, even after calibration. Requiring constant fiddling.
The Govee's are solid. The only problem I foresee is replacing the battery. Since the ones I have are so...
Hi BOTL/SOTL,
I'd like to know what everyone uses for wireless monitoring of their storage. Specifically with the option of showing historical data
So far from what I have read is the Sensorpush is basically the king, with the Govee units a cheaper alternative. Xiaomi apparently use the same...
Update:
The story up until that point above was the humidity was holding ok I wasn't pleased and I basically stopped caring. It was winter and the humidity was in the acceptable range for me (62 - 68). Temperature was fine due to an external temperature controller.
Along comes summer and the...
There are some good ones on there. They are all mostly compressor, though.
YMMV, but some people have had a great experience, others not so. Perhaps look for one that also has humidity control.
Forrest is known to take a long time, and some people have had issues with his quality of work.
You might want to get in contact with John - http://www.cigar-coolers.com/ costs more - but worth it.
2 weeks for the Boveda seasoning kits. Don't open the cooler until 2 weeks have passed!
Also your image above does not work. Try reosting it. I'm interested to see.
I'm not sure why, but you're spelling "masturbation" wrong.
Anyway, my data logging shows it's fairly well set.
I'm going to have the fans turn on with the humidifier, as I tested with the fans off and it was better... So I think with fans coming on with humidifier it will help the humidity...
Hello.
The 2 shelves and drawers from John arrived. I would post pictures - but they're wrapped in glad-wrap with Boveda seasoning packs.
Seeing as I have a few sticks in the cooler I didn't want to mess it all up with seasoning kits. I figured glad wrap is the next best thing. I also did this...
I must say the John Nelson experience is amazing. He messaged me earlier today and said "I will probably be able to ship by the end of the week." which is always good news when things are ahead of schedule.
In other news, I now have 2 fans up top and 2 fans down bottom - both 120mm. I also put...
So I bought a Cigar Oasis Plus. With the plus unit at the bottom - the humidity was really good except for the top - however, very minor fluctuations.
I decided to season 2 of the SC racks I bought ages ago, and re-season one of my humidor racks. I placed all 3 in the wineador and the cigar...
Extra 3lbs of beads came the other day. I pulled all of my beads out 4 days ago, and let the new ones also dry out.
I shoved them all in, at different levels and will see what happens.
This is more of just a test to see if more beads make any difference (which I expect it won't).
Also, I...
