12th Fret - our local great acoustic store, uses them.

That being said, I brought my digital hygrometer into their store, left it in a controlled room for a day, then simply noted the discrepancy from Abbeon in order to make my own readings (in my case, my digital hygrometer was right on).

Caveat: Doesn't account for possible variation across the entire range, tho.
Yep, the Abbeon's seem to be the creme de la creme of hygrometers. The ISO-9001 certification is an important factor. All the one's I've looked at with that certification appear to be in that same price range. Unfortunately, my Santa doesn't have that deep of pockets.
