My wife decided to be thoughtful and bough a new humi for me. But it didn't have a hygrometer with it. That was rectified PDQ. What I'm wondering is, can it be mounted somewhere and not affect its use? Or can I cut a hole in the humi, seal it with silicone, and mount the hygrometer in the case?

Depending on what you bought, it should come with either a magnetic mount or sticky mount. Either can be used without cutting into your humidor.

If it's still in the box, maybe return it if you didn't get a digital. The old style can be quite variable in accuracy.

Either way if you want to use them, you should salt calibrate them first. Search here or google for how it's done.

Settle down! please don't cut the box. Just set it on the top tray. It is not a bad thing to open your humi to see the hygrometer. Why all the destruction talk?#-o

Opening up your Humi to let fresh air in from time to time, every now and then, is a good thing actually.

Good advice being given.

No holes cut in humi unless it's a big one which then it shud come with one.

Sometime they even come with velcro attached to them. If all else fails go to your nearest hardware store and get some ODORLESS/VAPOR-LESS glue and simply attach it inside somewhere.
