Title says it all

I’m looking for an accurate greenhouse thermometer hygrometer that is very water resistant and can handle up to 90+ humidity.

Under 100$ preferably. I’ve gone through two “greenhouse” thermometer hygrometers because they couldn’t handle the humidity and misting. They were accurate, but not for very long lol.

Thanks

I'm a cheap guy but this thermometer/hygrometer really works well for me (link posted below). I keep it in a highland nep terrarium that goes over 90 humidity. The terrarium is always dripping with moisture but this device can handle it. It's such a reliable thermometer, I keep a few in my house as well. I'm pretty sure it can work for a greenhouse too.

It has worked out! Survived longer than my other one lol. It’s usually 80+ humidity during the day and 99+ at night. Thanks for the recommend

You're welcome! Although, I have to warn you that I don't know how it would work for long-term in a greenhouse. It has worked for me for about half a year already, and it should be easy to replace if it breaks. I mean, 10 bucks? That's really affordable if it lasts for 5+ years per device.

If it can survive in a much smaller enclosed space like a terrarium dripping with moisture, then I would assume it can handle a greenhouse! Image
And if it does break, down another 10$ as you said. No biggie
