Most hygrometers suck. Period. I don't know what kind my friend has, but he's told me that it's fairly reliable.

The one this guy I know got about a year ago at Radioshack for like $25 (I think) hasn't let him down yet, and he's had it in 95%+ conditions for more than a week a few times.

decent ones for ~$30, super-nice ones for >$100. IMO, screw hygrometers for high rH situations. get a psychrometer. Needsno calibration and 100% accurate throughout the entire range of rH and you get a thermometer as part of the instrument by default.
