I use a Digicabi form Carrefour also. Have no problems with it at all.
Mine uses the analogue RH indicator.

always get a separate digital hygrometer to countercheck cos these analog dial hygrometers bundled with the cabinet are sometimes quite off. mine was off by about 10% when i first bought my digi-hygro to check and i had to re-cal it

Can you please advise where to buy the digital ones. TIA

 

[vince123123]

all hardware stores will have it. some photo shops like fotohub has it too.

Got mine at Ruby (Penisular).

Small so that it take up less space.

im using a digi-cabi dry cabinet too...
have no problem with it and it can go as low as 35% RH

i guess the 50L sold at carrefour is a good buy... :thumbsup:

go get it!!

cheers

Just got it today looks ok, but think the analog RH is not very accurate, out of the box it's already at 65%.

Not very heavy too for a 50L. But the boot of the car can only fit 1.

I am confused. Is this S$99 drybox an electric drybox but with analog meter? Can someone post a pic of it?

 

[espn]

It's an electronic dry cabinet with analog meter branded as Everone. There's another brand Digi-Cabi at Carrefour, 30L @ $148, with digital meter.

Inside the box for the Everone brand, however, is 2 manuals, one is for Digi-Cabi and the other is for Everone, they have the same manuals just that the name was printed differently on each manual.

Think can conclude safely this is a Digi-Cabi OEM? And oh yes, 5 yrs warranty as sulhan mentioned. Attached is a shot of it.

Just to ask, what's probably the difference between a cheap and expensive dry cabinet?

I'm looking at getting another one, but I don't think I got enough moola to buy another Toyo Living cabinet...

 

[plinius]

is the price of $99 an offer or promotional price? if promotional price, any idea when ending?

thanks

 

[espn]

$149 original price, $99 is the promotional price I have no idea when the promotion will end, there's still about 15 there when I took my set.

difference is price

It's the brand. I bought my olympus 30L from AP for $70. DIY shops and carrefour sells EXACTLY the same dry box but different brand at $128....... I couldn't comprehend either.......

Go grab the 50L. $99 bucks is worth it!

BUY BUY BUY!

Urrr... sorry, when you say out of the box do you mean when you first bought it? If so then its not plugged in so the RH 65% should be normal?

Anyway no worries, even for digital RH meters, there is also at least 5-10% error. Unless you are willing to spend on a super sensitive RH meter, no matter digital or analog they will both be about the same.

Cheers! And I have to say again, $99 for 50L damn cheap! hehehe.......
