Moisture Meter, with Battery and LCD Display, Suitable for Quick Determination of Moisture Content of Many Types of logs, Paper, Plywood, Plaster Walls, Floor coverings, etc.

If you have a log burner, especially in an older period property like my 1890s terrace, you quickly learn that "Kiln Dried" doesn't always mean "Ready to Burn." I bought this moisture meter to take the guesswork out of my winter fuel prep, and the results were eye-opening. ​The "Real World" Test: The most important thing I’ve found (and shown in my photos) is that testing the outside of a log is useless. I tested a batch of kiln-dried ash that looked perfect on the outside (reading 12-14%). However, as soon as I split the log and tested the fresh internal face, the reading jumped to 23-25%. Burning that would have gummed up my flue and wasted energy. ​Why this specific meter works: ​Speed & Clarity: The display is bright and the reading is near-instant. ​The Pin Depth: The pins are sturdy enough to get a good bite into hardwood without feeling like they’ll snap. ​Versatility: I’ve also been using it to check for damp patches around my skirting boards before I start my upcoming bedroom decorating and MDF alcove shelving project. It’s a great peace-of-mind tool for old house maintenance. ​Verdict: If you’re a new stove owner, don’t guess. Get a meter, split your logs, and test the center. This tool is inexpensive, accurate enough for home use, and could save you a very expensive chimney sweep bill. Highly recommended.

Ease of use: Bought it for wood only which is excellent but the other functions are handy 👍

Decent moisture meter for fire logs. Spikes help give good readings and it's supplied with a spare set. Tested it on wood I knew the approximate moisture content of, hardwood and soft. It was pretty accurate and confirmed the firewood sellers specifications. Happy with my purchase. Easy to understand/use and accuracy is good.

don time not used to muchbut seems as if it's a good unit

Works fine and easy to read instructions

Batteries included and easy to fit and use. The mould spots on my wall are due to humidity not damp according to this. Hope that's the case.

Finding this moisture meter very useful, easy to use and accurate. Happy with my purchase.

Cheap and cheerful backup for testing firewood. Arrived late which is disappointing as a prime customer. It's accurate enough for quick fire wood checks before selling on
