This surface moisture meter is suitable for measuring the moisture content of wood and other building materials with an accuracy of 0.50%. It has a built-in temperature sensor, which can also be used to measure the temperature of the object. The device has eight different calibration scales, so that it can measure different types of wood as accurately as possible. The stop function allows the value measured by the device to be frozen on the display, which makes it easier to take notes. The unit displayed by the meter can be changed between Celsius and Fahrenheit by pressing a button.

The device's spikes are protected by rubber plugs and are hidden under a removable protective cap during storage. The backlit display with green light makes it easy to read even in the dark. The body of the device is shaped to fit the hand and has rubber-coated grip surfaces that improve grip on the device. The device automatically turns itself off if it is not used, which prevents accidental battery wear. The device is powered by 2 x AAA batteries.

Surface moisture meters are particularly suitable for measuring the moisture content of different types of wood, which is of primary importance when making epoxy castings, for example. They can also measure the moisture content of different materials such as hardboard and plasterboard.
