AC Infinity T6 vs S6

How has it worked out on the humidity settings? I just bought the T6 and S6 to run together and hopefully get closer to full environment automation.
To revisit this from about a week and a half ago...My current plants, now vegging in their 3rd-4th weeks (1 week of germ/seedling then early veg) are now in their 5g bags and being fully watered. My humidity went from being mainly provided by humidifier to now being mostly provided by soil & plant evaporation. As such, I was finding my days were usually in the ~70-77% RH range, and my nights were up around 85%...so I activated the 'high humidity' trigger on the Controller 67 so that if the humidity hits 72% the fan is triggered in 1% increments and it's worked like a charm. In the next week or so I'll ratchet that down so we're topping out in the low 60's but for now it's keeping my humidity (especially at night) more reasonable. The environmental humidity is about 40% outside the tent, so when the fan kicks in, the tent humidity modulates downward pretty quickly even at a setting of 1 or 2.

I still have the high temperature trigger set for 82 and no transitions so the fans kick on at 82 and ramp up fairly quickly to a max of fan speed 5. That seems to pull the hotter air out quickly and not allow for as much humidity drop (it kicks on ramps up then shuts down quickly).

As I run all this in our utilities room, I have a bit of control over ambient temperature but leaving that door open or shut (or part way) depending on time of day or how cold it is outside (colder it is, the more the boiler runs and warms up the utility room). I was finding the tent was getting up around 85f during peak heat/hot water usage times and leaving the door open reduced that to 82f.
