New Humidor help

Yeah 58% isn't too bad.. I keep mine at 64% pretty much steady and my drybox is set at around 58%...

Just keep an eye on things and if it gets lower then try to remedy the situation. Once things stabilize it should start ticking up...

Did I miss the part where you did a salt test on the Hygrometer? I assume if you are using a sponge(foam) humidifier you are also using PG solution. I would consider switching to beads for more trouble free maintenance. Also, if your humistat tube is 65% it is fighting against the 70% PG.
