Hygrometer

natejustice · Oct 9, 2005

I was at Target on Friday night, and was walking past the humidifier section and ceramic heater aisle, and saw a Holmes Digital Hygrometer that displays temperature as well for 9.99. Its really nice for the price..sure beats spending 20 bucks on a cheaper looking one at the local tobacco shop...just wanted to give you guys a heads up in case anybody is in the market for one. :thumbs:

Good find indeed! The weathers turning to crap so maybe ill take a little shopping trip to target today and see if i can find one. :thumbs:

Hello Nate,

Good find. Is this the same one:

No TARGET near me so I may need to scour the web for it...

TIA,

natejustice · Oct 9, 2005

Yeah, it looks very similar to the one above, only darker in color...for 9 dollars I couldn't resist

Have you calibrated this puppy yet? I am curious how much it is off.

Thanks,
Mark

Its fairly accurate, accuracy within 1-2%RH..

If it calibrates within 1-2% then that's an AWESOME deal!

Argh! I wish we had a Target here in Sandusky! We are building one right now, but that won't be done for several months.

Threadjack!
Yesterday our kids were asking us why prices are advertised as $9.99 or $14.99 etc.
My wife said that years ago it was determined that consumers sort of ignored the .99 and regarded the price as cheaper than it actually was.
Hence, Nate refering to the $10.00 item as a $9.00 item.
That being said, I'm on my way to Target!

Too bad I didn't read this earlier as I had to make a trip to Buffalo this morning and pick my mother in law up at the airport. I go right past a target on the way there. Looks like I will have to stop by Target on Sunday when I take her back.

Just had the wife pick one up on her way home from work.

Thanks, Bro.

I've got a couple of these and they work great. The only problem is they are not small. Fine for a coolidor or cabinet but a bit large for a desktop.

cletus · Oct 15, 2005

Picked one up also, thks for the heads up.

natejustice · Oct 15, 2005

Yeah no problem guys, glad i could help

Hopefully these will still be in stock. How much does the sucker weigh. I am thinking of attaching this to my coolidor lid, what do you guys think?

Their not heavy...some good double sided tape or a couple strips of velcro should hold it in place.

Are you guys snipping off the wire for the outdoor sensor or coiling it up some how?

Pretty sweet little deal for $10. Not as nice as those small $10 ones that Radio Shack was selling a year or so ago but still good.

Yeah I just coiled mine up...

I was just at the local Target in Buffalo and saw those bad boys. Damn, why didn't I wait on purchasing the Oregon Scientifics (x 3) and purchased those instead.

Can't complain as I like the idea of having all 3 of my hygrometers feeding their information into one hygrometer station read out.

Good find Nate!

What section are you guys finding these at? Where the humidifiers are?
