    I went out and baught the Flukers dual digital gauge. It reads completely different from my analog gauges I have. Hopefully its actually right as it reads around 77 at night instead of either straight 70 or alil lower. During the day it reads anywhere from 80 to 83.5 temp wise anyway. The hygrometer has been reading perfect 70 to even higherand it goes up and down but almost never below 70. Even after I was at work all day.

    You can calibrate the hygrometer w/ something like this:
    Amazon.com: One Step Ez Hygrometer Calibration Kit: Everything Else

    I checked the one that's begging for some Hammer Time at work, and it's a Zilla dual analog.

    If its black and round with the temp on the bottom and the hygrometer on top then its the same one I have.

    Black back--huge Zilla logo in color, larger hygrometer on the top and smaller thermometer on the bottom. Temp is always at 80, humidity is always at 60. Never changes. I have a decent idea of what the humidity based on the condensation, and I'm guessing on the temp based on the toads setup next door. The only reason it's still in there is b/c the one of my chorus frogs likes to sit on it. Once the new digital one is in, that one's getting a beating.
