Why do the pin and pinless readings look different?
That’s normal.Pin meters measure moisture at a specific spot by touching the material.
Pinless meters scan the surface quickly to give a reference value.
Is this as precise as a laboratory meter?
This tool is designed for home inspection, woodworking, and construction use with ±2.5% accuracy, not for laboratory testing.
When should I use Pin (probe) vs. Pinless (non-invasive) mode?
Pin: Best for thick wood, drywall, or concrete; the probe needs to penetrate the material.
Pinless: Best for quick scans of large areas.
MT19 Wood Moisture meter
Affordable, provides stable, point-to-point measurements for accurate moisture detection
About US
We are a professional moisture meter manufacturer with 13 years of experience. Our team includes R&D, production, sales, and after-sales support, dedicated to providing high-quality, reliable, and accurate moisture measurement solutions for wood, building materials, and flooring worldwide
Wall moisture meter
Firewood Moisture Meter
Angle Meter and Stud Finder
Four Measurements: Easily set the wood species from hardwood to softwood you need to measure. Offers a relative moisture content (comparative) measurement
Measurement Principle and Ideal Use Cases
Probes penetrate the wood to measure moisture via electrical resistance/conductivity between pins.
- Thin boards or veneered wood
- Firewood or general lumber checking
- Situations where pinholes are acceptable
wood Moisture meter
Advantages & Disadvantages
Advantages:
1- Accurate for surface-penetrated areas 2- Works well on thin boards or veneered wood
Disadvantages:
- Hard to penetrate dense/hard wood - Leaves pinholes - Limited depth - Less reliable when the context below ~7% moisture
