Why measure the humidity at all? If the eggs are dimpling, it's too dry. If they're getting funky wet spots, it's too wet.

If they stay round and perfect, the humidity is just right!

Cheapie humidity gauges are just that - cheapie humidity gauges. I've seen some that read at 40% no matter what, even in a cage that you can feel the mugginess in.
