UK Hobbyists - Analogue Hygrometer's

Can somebody in the UK suggest a cheap hygrometer which does accually read up too 95-99 RH? What i've found from companies is that they have no idea what there talking about and so only tell me what it reads on the face, same goes with eBay and so I keep losing money on hygrometers.....

Well I don't live in the UK, but I've visited...Have you checked in cigar shops like we in the States often do? You still need to calibrate them yourself.

Yeah I know how to calibrate, but when the hygrometer only goes to 80%. then thats kind of useless. It's hard to even find a cigar let alone cigar shops. But then if I managed to or from a cigar shop on the net, the reliability is the problem because so far what iv'e been sold cannot be adjusted.

Did you calibrate your analogue hygrometer?
Because they aren't that accurate, they're tuned for a particular range - which for the typical user is not 95%-99%
Wrap it in a wet towel, leave it an hour, and (holding the metal on the back still) take the needle off the face, and put it back on pointing at 100%
Worked for me, now my £0.99p eBay hygrometer reads the same as my digital one

If I use a wet cloth with the ones I have got they just max out at 80%. If I force the face round then when the true global RH is 60% then my hygrometer will state 80%. There is no way of knowing if the 80% means 80 or 90 or 95.

You want it to be accurate in th 95-100% range, calibrate to that. If it's low, it's low.
