Humidity Test???

My friend has descided to do some humidity tests before his little mycelium friends are ready for birthing. He half filled a small tuperware cont. with water and placed in the middle something he could set his new "Cigar Perfect" hygrometer on so it wouldn't get wet then closed it up. he checked it the next day and his meter was showing in the low 70's. Is it because he didn't include perlite in his test? I tried to tell him but... I've told him to consider calibrating it using the tec, but him insists that the cigar perfect hyrgo. is precalibrated.

how exactly does one calibrate a humidity meter? that doesn't sound like that would be something they wouldn't do pre-use. If we ourselves had the capability to gauge what the humidity was to calibrate a meter, we wouldn't need the meter.
