Unreliable LG Hygrometer

[Lazy Farmer]

Another lock down is upon us once again. Our #3 LG Bator is in lockdown. Windows all steamed up and the factory meter reads 26% humidity but my recently purchased hygrometer reads it at 70%.
As well as the heater is cranked up to 102.5° F to achieve 99.5°F on my calibrated aux thermometer.

This particular bator is less than 6 months old. It leaks and has liars for meters.
Good for school projects but not good for everyday usage.

I always hear those thermometers and hydrometers are flaky.

Now 2 out of 3 bators are leaking. I have plastic trays under all 3 now. I suspect the 3 one will join the fun soon enough. One of them I tried caulking the bottom. It fixed it for a couple of days.
You get what you pay for I suppose.
