Works really well for testing wood-burner logs. Had two suspect batches of logs from local supplier. Our old tester was inconclusive, this tester was excellent!

Excellent product and easy to use

For the price this is an excellent little meter. I have used it to track down the source of a very damp smell in one of our rooms. I would say (and they advise this) to take a series of readings around the area you are interested in - this meter is most useful as a sort of ''compare the damp levels in this specific area to an area nearby'' sort of a tool. I bought a second non-pin damp meter (same sort of price - cheap) so I can always use both types of meters and make sure I am not getting spurious readings (for example, the presence of iron salts from old nails can make pin type moisture meters give falsely high damp readings, and the presence of metal pipes nearby can make non pin moisture meters do the same).

It's accurate my mate just ordered one as well.

Works perfectly.I have just paid in excess of £300 for a damp check on my motorhome & the damp that was found is in an area which is outside of warranty repair :-( (no great surprise there!!)So I purchased this monitor to do the checks myself & it has given exactly the same reading as the professional check I have had done, which makes me very happy as it will save me money in the future.One small downside. You have to push quite firmly, which means that you get 2 small dents on the object you are checking, so you need to do the check in a place that is not easily visible.My only complaint, as with everything you buy today, why is there not an option to say I do not want an instruction manual. 18 pages of English and 86 pages of gibberish. what's wrong with a QR code???

It works great! Very accurate!

Great little moisture meterIdeal for testing timber before working it

We bought it to check firewood. All the wood we use in my area is B on the meter, so everything is a snap! We bought wood this year, so things are on the high end of acceptable humidity. This works great to get wood within the range our blaze king recommends separate from the stuff that needs more drying.It is pretty accurate too. We checked it against 3 other units. It does other materials also, but we just use it for the wood. The colors of the background are helpful if you are grabbing wood at night. It is a quick go-no go Guage.

Ottimo prodotto

**A Reliable Moisture Meter That Earns a Permanent Spot in the Shop**A moisture meter is one of those tools that seems optional until you actually start using one regularly — and then you wonder how you made sound decisions about wood without it. The TopTes TS-630 hits the right marks on accuracy, readability, and build quality for a tool that gets grabbed frequently across a variety of applications.The 2.25-inch LCD with tricolor backlight is the standout usability feature. Green, yellow, and red status indication means you get an instant visual read on moisture condition without interpreting numbers on the fly — particularly useful when you're checking a stack of firewood quickly or moving through a job site assessment. The display is large enough to read comfortably in varying light conditions without squinting.Accuracy is solid and consistent across the measurement range. For firewood evaluation — knowing whether a split is actually seasoned and ready to burn versus still holding moisture that will kill your fire — this pays for itself quickly. For drywall, framing, and subfloor checks after any kind of water event, having a reliable baseline reading gives you confidence in the call.The handheld form factor and pin-style probes work well for both quick surface checks and getting meaningful readings into the material. Build quality feels appropriately rugged for a tool that lives in a toolbox or work bag rather than a display case.Response time is fast and readings stabilize quickly, which matters when you're checking multiple pieces in succession.For woodworkers, contractors, homeowners dealing with moisture concerns, or anyone managing firewood inventory, this is a capable and practical tool at a fair price. Recommended.
