When the humidity dropped to 25% in my house the cheap ones were all registering 40%, so basically useless. The Calbers all registered 25%. A Caliber IV costs about $30.00 (Oasis is the same unit). Cheap insurance compared to the cost of our guitars
I had the same experience

My info on hygrometry is HERE
