Hi Christopher,

Same suggestion as I made on patch 2 applies here.

Otherwise LGTM. This one seems less likely to be a problem in
practice than the previous just because I can't imagine we have
devices out there with multiple humidity sensors! Still good to
fix in case they ever show up.

thanks,

Jonathan
