How do you maintain your humidity? Any humidifier recommendations?

Looks good. Just leave that dial on the front turned "on" and let the inkbird do the rest!

What heater do u use? the heater I have won’t work cuz of digital control default. I’m looking for a SMALL heater to add a couple of degrees to a closet. I respectfully request to draw on your knowledge.

This is what I want for use with the ink bird controller?

Yes , you need something with a switch or knobs that stay on when the power is shut off

Beat me to it! This is exactly what I use in my small 2.3x2.3, it works great. I

Yes. I set mine on a brick, there is a button on the bottom. If it tips and the button pops up it turns off. There is a switch on the top that has a "I" and "II" setting. "I" is 125W and II is the full 250W. I find the "I" setting to be enough. Leave it switched on and let the inkbird sensor monitor temp and the on/off cycle for you.

I belive the inkbird lets you program a degree swing, say + or - 3 degrees. Set it to 77F and it will go between 74 and 80. Pretty nice.

can you give me a report after you get it? I sure hope this is our solution.

I know this is a bit late but - I returned it. It worked poorly as an evaporative humidifier, which (as @DCLXVI described) is marginal at best for tent humification IMHO. I am back to ultrasonic/RODI water.

Ok - after months and months of searching and many humidifiers bought, tried, and returned, I have found my One True and Final grow tent humidifier. And only $19.99! on Amazon. You're welcome.

Nice find! Hahaha

Yes, my evaporative humidifier does fine in my small 2.3x2.3 but, it can't hold up to an ultrasonics ability.

So I have the inkbird powering and controlling the heater & humidifier. I also have an ACinfinity fan/filter/sensor setup controlling temp and humidity. Between the two it holds very steady. It is admittedly a bit pricey and setup calibration takes some time. Works well in combination after.

Yes well it's different.

I used to take your approach on using the ACI controller with the Inkbird, but found just setting the ACI on a constant level and then adjusting the Inkbird worked better in my particular system. However, I was just using the RH IB and not the combo.

The whole thing is just a plain pain in the ass!
