Can you Recommend a Hygrometer?

I'm having much problem finding a reliable hygrometer. I've been through a handful of them already. The Analog one's purchased from the pet store are non adjustable and won't read over 85%. The digital ones (3of them) have ceased working in the high humidity. I am looking for an analog adjustable one that will read high levels of humidity. Thanks for the help.

You shouldn't need one if you have a properly built FC.

Which is probably the point of a hygrometer -- to indicate that your FC may not be properly built when it's not apparent otherwise.

Any major advantage of steel apart from durability? Plastic is much cheaper, and they are not in a harsh environment.
Found this thread while searching for hair-hygrometers. Shows how they work and just how simple they are to build.

Western Humidor makes the best (most accurate) hygros.
TWO options i've found. Both by Wester Humidor
1. Analog Hygrometer by Western Humidor ($10-$15)
2. The Caliber 4R Gold Digital Hygro Temp. ($20-$25)
Both are very accurate right out the box. The 4R is (for me) best for me because it also very accurately reads the temp as well. So you get that little bonus and you don't need another meter in you terrarium. For the extra $10 is the least it wold cost to get yourself a thermo.

When you're doing a search, make sure you check the dates, this thread is a couple years old.
Edit: Of course cron beat me to it...can we maybe add a page before you bump a thread more than six months old just to let the person know they're responding to a post that old?

Oh...haven't bumped a thread that old in quite a while. For how often you see it happen I figured it must not be a thing.
