Proster Wood Moisture Meter - Digital Moisture Detector Moisture Tester, Pin-Type Moisture Detector Damp Tester for Wood Firewood Paper Floor

I learned to check four or five spots on my firewood because not always the same moisture throughout. Seems to be accurate. Easy to use no problems

The tester works great but whoever packaged it for delivery needs to make sure the package is sealed so it won’t come opened. The package was 1/2 opened when it came. I have had two other times that I received an empty package and had to contact Amazon for a replacement.

Very easy to use, a quality kit at an affordable price.

I have taken down several trees to use for firewood and this tool tells me when this wood is dry enough to burn. Very easy to use

Tested several pine wood stove logs and found it useful. Interesting that some I thought cured were actually dryer than recommended and wood I thought too green is at the recommended moisture. Useful for checking your firewood.

Good price, works as it should but the pins are weak, already had the tip of one prong get damaged. The setting take some time to learn but happy enough.

This seems to work ok, but they say this will measure moisture for 50 different species. But, there is no list of the species, or the group they belong to. All I can find are the 24 listed in the manual. I'm using this for woodworking. I already have two hardwood species on hand that this doesn't list. And considering that walnut is in a different table than maple or cherry or padauk, I don't know where to classify them (purpleheart and wenge). I can guess, but I don't like guessing. Probably going to return it.

I have been splitting firewood for decades and never realized how much moisture variation can be in one tree until I learned about and bought a moisture meter. Like how it can be set for various tree species. Sorted wood as I split it into stacks that were the right moisture to burn and those that needed more drying time. I used to think I could tell by picking up the wood as I split it, but the Proster wood moisture meter proved my prior gauge of good firewood to be wrong! The meter is small enough to fit into my hand and pocket easily, large enough read out screen to read easily, and fast in measuring moisture. Sturdy case, bright orange if it falls out of my pocket accidentally so I can spot it easily. And the price was very affordable. It has already paid for itself several times over cost! My only disappointment was the difficulty I have removing the protective cap that covers sensor points. Know it has to snap on snuggly to keep dust and dirt out, but my thumbs and hands need help from a thin prying tool to get it off. Carry a small pocket knife to assist in getting it started and leave the cap off while splitting when I can set it down in a convenient space. Worth the aggravation of popping off the top and I can adapt. Just have to be careful not to mess up the points or my fingers!
