What Hygrometer/thermometer do you use?

[Yo Yo B]

I have been looking for a digital hygrometer/thermometer for my first panther chameleon. All I have really seen are zoo med, zilla, and flukers, and from what I have been reading the humidity seems to be off +/- 20 percent. Just wondering what some of you guys reccomend?

I actually don't use a hygrometer... maybe I should

But my thermometer is one I got off of Amazon by Cheerman. It's an infrared temp gun. Seems legit.

I've used exoterra, All Living Things (Petco generic brand, but I think it's made by Zilla), and a few generics off of ebay. The exoterra are pretty good, except for the most recent one I bought. It's off on the humidity by about 25%.

The All Living Things Temp/hygro has been really nice. It changes pretty rapidly, too. If I open the door, it will show the ambient room humidity, and when I close the door it changes really quick.

The ebay ones are hit and miss, and since some of them didn't have probes, I had to make sure they didn't get hit directly with water.

I use all of them as a guide, and don't take any of them as completely accurate. It just gives me an idea of what's going on.

A lot of people like the temp/hygro you can buy at home depot, they're cheap and easy to go pick up. I think the brand name is Accurite, but not 100% sure.
