just out of curiosity, what is your target humidity and what's usually outside?
Thanks for input since last, everybody.

This winter I target 40-45% since it only need 6 liter a day. Last winter I did 45-50% but needed 12 liter a day silly amount of white cover of everything in room.
- scary part is how electronics is covered in white dust
- thinking new computer might be impacted too

In the closet where most guitars are I always do around 50% RH since white cover does not create a problem, just making the keyboard covers over guitars get a bit white which I just vacuum as I polish guitars up a bit and check tuning and such.

All guitars are in floor stands, since I found cases does not give even humidity all over neck part.

From mid june to november all is fine without any humidifier. But winter is down to 33% RH in between and mostly below 40%.

I ordered a evaporative unit Swiss made, Stylies Orion, yesterday and will see how that works. It's cold mist still.
