Aldi are currently selling quite decent sized (4"?), solid (metal case) analogue hygrometers/thermometers which can be adjusted.
I was a bit sceptical about the manual saying "no need to calibrate, done at the factory", but it's within 2% of my other two for RH, and 0.2 degrees C. out of the box.
And at £3.99, I'm off to buy another one for the spray shop....

Love Aldi. Do all my grocery shopping there (plus, it's right across the street from my house).

This is like a factory tuned guitar :)

Sounds like a good deal though, as long as you're checking them.

Good luck, I've now got 2 reading the same, + 2% from my calibrated ones, which are actually due for a check anyway soon.
Like Argos, they've got a no-quibble exchange/refund policy as long as you have the receipt, so if you've any doubts...
