I had bad luck with a Norpro butter bell - mold, in spite of changing
the water daily.

Now all I do is cut about 3 tablespoons of butter from the stick to be
kept on a dish at room temp. It lasts maybe a couple days, depending on
what I'm using it for.

To minimize the volume of air that comes in contact with the butter.
The lower the water level, the more air trapped in the bell. If the
water drops too low, the bell isn't sealed off at all.

My house is constantly at war. "He" doesn't think it should be left
out... but "he" uses a soft butter now so his is soft all the time. I
still use regular butter and I'd like it to be out on the counter.
Unfortunately, we end up playing "keep it out of the refrigerator-or
not".

What would be unsafe about it? I leave my butter out on the counter
in a covered cheapo plastic dish - it's used every day, so it never
goes rancid.

You would never eat rancid butter by mistake. Stop stressing over it.
