Default Questions on Am-Pro dry cab owner

I just bought the 80L Am-Pro dc.

Just want to ask what setting do you guys set the dial to? H? M? or L? And how long did it took for the humidity level drops to the desirable humidity %? 1 day? The manual says 6 hours.

After 6 hours mine is still at 70% and I set the dial to M. Now I'm still playing with the dials and it only goes to 71% and 72%. Then if I set it back to the previous settings it goes back to 70%

erm... don't know if this is the "correct" thing to do but this was the advise by the saleman in cathay when i got my akiru..

1. take out everything in the cabinet... shelves and such... so its empty this "stabilise" the humidity. (or so he says)
2. Set the setting to H.
3. leave it for 2 days.
4. put all your things in and set it to M.
5. Adjust accordingly for it to hold at 40-50%.

so far it took me about a week to get the setting to the right place. was about 30% the first few days...

then finally got it.

hope it helps!
