Re: Good humidity meter?

Sam,

I was taught those many years ago that the most accurate measuring of  
humidity was by using a
sling psychrometer....  to measure the humidity at the time of  
measurement, rather than a over
a period of time.

They can be purchased somewhat inexpensively at auction

eg.
