10 Best Wood Moisture Meter of December 2025

• DETECT MOISTURE- Determine the moisture content of wood and other building materials (like drywall) or check water damaged areas to see if moisture is still present
• FIRST STEP IN MOLD PREVENTION - By checking suspicious water stains with a moisture tester around the house, you can determine whether the area is wet (a perfect breeding ground for mold) or has long since dried
• ACCURACY- Stick the stainless steel pins into the surface of what you are measuring in order to get a read-out. Overall measurement range of 5 to 50% for wood and 1. 5 to 33% for building materials as well as low, medium and high moisture tones and colored green, yellow and red LED visual alerts
• EASY TO READ AND USE- Large 0. 3 in. (8mm) high digits in a backlit LCD display for quick and easy viewing plus a hold function to freeze a reading, auto power off and a low battery indicator
• INCLUDES- Extra 0. 3 in. (8mm) stainless steel pins, protective cap that doubles as a calibration checker and a “9V” battery

General Tools

• ▶ 【Non-invasive and Non-marring】Get an accurate reading without making hole in furniture or other valuable objects. By using HF electromagnetic waves, you can spare the hassle of making holes and having to deal with the cleanup.
• ▶ 【High Precision, Wide Compatibility】Get exactly the reading you need, every time. Do you have different kinds of wood you're measuring? Choose from 10 unique grades of timber density, with 4%~80% Maximum Error (1% + 0.5).
• ▶ 【Temperature Compensation】MD918 meter has a temperature compensation function that keeps the object to be tested at the same temperature at least within 5 minutes to ensure more accurate readings.
• ▶ 【Power Saving】If you're not using the reader, its intelligent auto-off function will shut off the unit after 5 minutes of no use. Ultra large LCD screen ensures clear readings even if it's in a dark space.
• ▶ 【Calibration Indication】Make sure you're always in the know. The wood moisture meter will alert you for zero calibration, temperature calibration, and ATC overrunning (it alerts when the reading exceeds the upper limit of moisture content ratio).

Dr.meter

• ▶【2-in-1 Moisture Meter】The 2-in-1 Dr.meter moisture meter offers ideal dual functions of pin-type and pinless scanning in one. The pinless scanning mode with non-invasive measurement is ideal for high-end wood and building materials. The pin-type mode with faster response and higher accuracy is great for all kinds of wood and building materials.
• ▶【Wide Measuring Range】Different measurement modes correspond to different measurement ranges. In the pin-type mode: wood: 5%-50%, building materials: 1.5%-33%, error range: +/-2%; In the pinless scanning mode: wood: 0%-53%, error range: +/-4%.
• ▶【Over-range Alert】There are four pinless scanning modes of softwood, hardwood, gypsum board and concrete. The general algorithm has been written into the user manual to reduce the redundant settings before use to facilitate customers. When the wood moisture exceeds 17% or the wall humidity exceeds 70%, the wood moisture tester will beep to alert you.
• ▶【Current Ambient Temperature Measurement】The Dr.meter intelligent wood moisture meter can not only measure the humidity of wood and building materials, but also it can measure 0-40 degree current environmental temperature with only +/-2 degree error.
• ▶【User-friendly Design】Designed with green backlight display, reading hold on function and measurement signal bar display for more intuitive measurement tips, the digital moisture detector is more user-friendly. A bonus nylon storage bag is provided to store the product conveniently.
