Digital Wood Moisture Meter — BSIDE EMT01 Pin-Type Tester

Wet wood ruins projects and smokes up fireplaces. The BSIDE EMT01 is a pin-type moisture meter that tells you the moisture level of timber, lumber and firewood in seconds — push the two pins into the wood and read the number on the clear LCD screen.

Contractors and woodworkers use a meter like this to check lumber before building with it, to test whether firewood is dry enough to burn cleanly, and to trace damp in timber around leaks. The compact body fits in a pocket or tool belt, and the pins have a protective cap for storage.

Good for: checking firewood before winter, testing lumber and timber for woodworking and framing, and investigating damp wood around windows, decks and leaks.

Specs: pin-type (2-pin) measurement, digital LCD display, compact handheld body.
