Hydrometer Issues

Flynnster · 10-02-2014, 08:15 PM

Hey all,
Recently, I thought I was having some humidity issues in my humi even though its got about double the beads in it I need. Replaced the battery in my hydrometer because I heard that a low battery can cause weird readings.

Put it back in and was still getting strangely high readings. Just salt tested it and it reads 90% Adjusting it didn't lower the number on the readout.

My question is, can I just always assume it's 15% high? Or does this sound like it's just gone totally bad?
