You can test the accuracy of your device by putting it in a sealed ziploc bag overnight along with a bottle cap full of salt with a few drops of water added to it. You want the salt to be slightly slushy, but not dissolved. You should get a final reading of 75%. Mine was 2% off, which I can live with.
Mine was 2% off too after overnight, It read 73%. Thanks for great info :)
 
I have a forced air furnace on propane and I do not run it very often but needed to the other day while some work was being done on the house. That sucked the humidity out of the house so fast I could not believe it. It took me 2 days to get it back up to 30%. I got up this morning and humidity is at 40%. The humidity seems to be a lot better when all I use is the wood stove with a cast iron pot full of water boiling away on it.
