Ok so i found the problem with the humdifier.
Its working now.
The rh sensor is crucial to the design, so bypassing that inside the unit wont work, so i get to going over every square inch,
The sensor connection to the base is the issue, its a bad design inside the connector.
There are 4 prongs that are comprised of multiple strands of unbraided copper fillaments. These “prongs” have to be absolutly vertical in connector with none of the copper out of place or touching any of the other fillaments. Yeah, thats great, but whoever the r&d team is at spiderfarmer is,
May want to maybe try.
It should have never been approved like this.
Instead of trying to pinch pennies, they should invest some thought into solid connectors. Instead of the janky fillament stupidity.
So humidifiers have been around for decades.
Even the temp rh reading variety.
The way i see it, they went ahead they broke something that aint needed fixin’.
So i go and i check online to see what the appropriate fix is for the sensor fail trouble code sounding off,
Step one,
Verifiy your homes breakers are operational (
)
Step 2
verify the unit is plugged in and sensor is connected
Step 3
Clean sensor
If none of the above worked you may have to return your unit.
There was an army of people that went and returned units over this.
Im certain its all folks who jossled copper filamints in the sensor connector.
So spiderfarmer, the fucking product designer doesnt even know this.
What a sham.
Next weird shit. The connection point for the hose on the lid, cheap very thin plastic. They give you a hose clamp for it, but if you actually use the clamp, you may buckle the flange on the connection point. If you leave it loose, it will dump condensate out and puddle around the flange. They even went ahead and just cut three runoff collection holes in the lid bc they knew this was a thing.
So instead of fixing the issue, they just added and cnc’d in holes.
Im gut laughing over it.
Who are these people.
The humidifier dept needs help there.
Everything else i run from them is fucking rad,
But this humidifier is blowing my mind with its
Ehem, eccentricities
