I got a new gadget for Xmas, an Oregon Scientific weather station with a remote sensor that you can put outside to gather outside temperature and humidity. I noted that I can buy additional sensors (it will monitor up to 5), and it occurred to me to toss one in the gunsafe.
That, naturally, begged the question...what is a safe range of relative humidity for firearms? I know that low humidity is better for rust prevention, what is the upper safe level? 40%? 30%? Anyone know?
Also, as a side discussion, how good are Oregon Scientific weather stations? Are there better ones out there for consumers?
