Very mixed readings

Nomed

Aimez le monstre.
I have 4 different humidity gauges. Two (one digi and the other dial) are in the ball pythons tank and the other two are dial sticks in the the corn snakes tanks. On the dials I'm getting the humidity for all 3 places is about 55%-65% and on the digital one I'm getting about 35% Which one should I trust? The digital one is from home depot its a blue thermomoter/hydrometer. Should I take both and average them or just trust the dial one?
 
I find the dial sticks tend to read a little high. I have the combo one that seems pretty good in the one cage, but I recently bought the single T-rex brand I think it was, and it seems to be high all the time. The digital should be pretty accurate I would think. It would depend upon where you place the gauge though.
 
mhm I thought the ones in the corn snakes tanks were high because they have the heat lamp and a full water dish all the time so I figured that would make it a big higher the ball python tank dosent have any water at all yet (dosent even have bedding) Ive been running the uth to see what I should run it at. the gauge if on the bottom of the tank next to the house on the warm side. I'll get a picture up if my batteries arent dead lol.
 
All mine vary by maybe 10%- the one on the house thermostat, the weather station, the Flukers (have a lot of those)- all different.
