Im not familiar with this brand, but is it the large one with the LCD display? Is there a way to calibrate them?

If I could make two suggestions that will save you much aggrivation in the long run:
1.) get yourself a Boveda calibration kit... SO worth the $5 just not to have to worry about spilling a salt mash concoction all over your hygrometers.
Many B&Ms carry them, or you can order them here:

2. get yourself a Xikar Hygrometer. The most accurate, and easiest hygro Ive owned. It is also the nicest looking. It will cost a few bucks more, but worth it in the long run. I own the larger square model and couldnt be happier with it.
