hygrometers?

[wayne g]

i have a faulty exo terra hygrometer that went ti#s up after only 3 months use in my dartfrog viv.

i've tried drying it out for a few days and tried a diferent battery but after giving stupid readings for a few days it's now stuck solidly on 14% regardles of where i put it


whats on the ,market that is worth buying?
i cant afford anyting too expensive but really begrudge buying another exo terra one after this one has only lasted 3 months?
it's in a full on planted viv with a misting system.
thanks wayne

If you've only had it 3 months it should still be under guarantee. I've seem a hygrometer/thermometer combi, digital on e bay for 10

Was it the digital hydrometer or the round on that you stick on the?

[wayne g]

it may be under waranty but i bought it from a local store that has since closed and i didn't keep the reciept.


it's the digital type.


does anyone on here want to give any reviews of what they have personally had experience of?

Try contacting Hagen about it, you may still be able to get a replacement. It's worth a try for a phone call!
