Choosing and using this product
Position the sensor where you need to measure conditions and compare readings with the requirements of your animal. The Combometer measures conditions; it is not a thermostat or humidity controller.
For your setup, also explore the Compact Top Mini canopy.
I have had this for about two months and it is still working perfectly. It is very sensitive to temperature change as well as humidity fluctuations. I am using it in a hermit crab tank and really like the option to put the sensor inside the tank and the display outside of the tank. I am using it to monitor air conditions as opposed to substrate conditions. I added Dual lock strips to mount it instead of the suction cups as those did not work at all. This type of temperature and humidity gauge rarely lasts very long and are usually not that accurate, this one has been really exceptional. For a device in this price range I would definitely give it five stars.
****update*** February 2020
This lasted nearly 2 years before the humidity gauge stopped being accurate. I verified its accuracy throughout its life with two different types of gauges. It rapidly reads and adjusts to changes in both temps tire and humidity. For the price this lasted a long time and functioned very well. I would still recommend and I am purchasing again.
I love it, it helps me regulate the temperature/ hydrometer more effectively. I have cresties and I understand that it is unhealthy if temps are as high as 85 degrees and if the max temp reads within 2-3 degress of that range I adjust my light fixture further away. My cresties seem more lively now that the terrarium is a bit more comfortable.
There is a max (highest temp/ hydro reading), min (lowest temp/ hydro reading), and current reading features. However you have to reset the max/min every day if you want to get your daily reading. I do this every day I wake up. it literally takes 2 seconds to do and I can get my range at the end of the day and see if I need to adjust the light.
I was worried that a product this inexpensive would not be accurate. It actually is accurate when tested in conjunction with more expensive thermometers and hygrometers. The only drawback seems to be that it is a little slow to adjust to changes in temps (example, put it in the refrigerator then take it out. It takes awhile for the temp to start climbing). Its also small enough to monitor incubator conditions.
