I noticed when running my Humidifier I noticed my tents RH wouldn't be stable. I'd be a 50% in the morning and 39% afternoon. A fellow member linked the Ink Bird IHC200 in the discord chat, I am glad I purchased it.

Installation was confusing to say the least. A couple things I messed up was;

WORK 1 is Humidifier ONLY and WORK 2 is Dehumidifier ONLY. 

When setting up the switch you have to HOLD Set to lock in your set value. 

I didn't need to calibrate it, seems to match up with the monitor I already have in the tent.

HAHAHA I bought one of those with my Humidifier. It took me a while of tinkering to figure it out too lol. I find thou maybe its me that is not as accurate as my Affinity sensor is. I had to set my Ink Bird 5 RH higher to achieve same RH values as the Affinity reading. I also changed the HD and DD reading to 1.0 instead of the default 5.0

I was thinking about changing the Values from 5.0 to 1.0 as I just don't think it comes on much anymore lol. 

Maybe the AC Infinity is reading wrong? I no my very expensive EcoBee thermostat reads the Humidity 7% to low.
