I like to monitor and regulate my RH%, particularly in my music room. I have humidifiers and a de-humidifier to keep me within an ideal range, but I also keep a couple of hygrometers around to monitor the numbers. Last month, while traveling, my music room hygrometer disappeared (I later discovered that my 14yo daughter "borrowed" it), so I ordered a SensorPush Wireless Hygrometer for Christmas.
It works like any standard hygrometer, except that it automatically tracks readings every minute, which gets transmitted onto a smartphone app. As a result, I can see how my RH% changes with the temperature, how it changes during the night (while I'm asleep) or during the day (while I'm at work). It will even send me an alert if my temp or RH fall outside of a high/low range that I created, which is super helpful if I forget to empty/fill my dehumidifier/humidifiers.
It's the perfect gift for an information geek like me!
The battery lasts 1-2 years and is easily replaceable. Amazon carries another brand for less than half the price, but this one looked good and had favorable reviews, so I splurged.
There are more photos in the link, but here's mine from this morning. Things are very stable right now, although I did take the temp down last night, so I can see how the RH reacted to that change. I think I'm going to learn a LOT with this device, especially in my summer, when temps swing 40 degrees, outside RH changes 40% daily, and I run my house fan to cool things off.
