I Recently Had The Exact Sme Problem. I Bought A New Humidor With A Analog Hygrometer. After A Week Of Repeated Seasoning And Frustration I Removed The Hygrometer And Used The Salt Calabration Method. To My Suprise The Hygrometer Still Read 55%. At The Same Time I Also Tested Another Hygrometer I Knew Was Correct From My Other Humidor. To My Relief I Found The New Hygrometer To Be Around 15% off. i am thinking of pickin up a digital hygrometer to finally settle my nerves as i have around $400 of sticks in the new humidor alone and would really HATE to lose them!
