Before retiering I was a calibration technician of electronic measuring equipment for 13 years. I can tell you something about these moisture meters. All moisture meters are only approximate meters. They give you an indication of the approximate moisture content of your firewood. The differences between the meters is normal and has little or nothing to do with the "accuracy" of the meter. What the meter tells you depends on the way the measurement is done. The distance between the measuring pins. The species of wood. Also the moisture content plays a role. Sounds logical that the moisture content plays a role. What I mean is this. Suppose you have a piece of wood that has an absolute moisture content of 21%. You can't measure this electronically but just assume it is 21%. With one meter you may get a reading of 18% and an other will show 22%. The first meter is 3% low and the second is 1% high. Now you get a piece of the same wood but that has a 35% moisture content. You measure it with the same 2 meters. The first now reads 36% and the second 34%. Now both are only 1% off but the first in high and the second is low. This shows that the real moisture content does have an influence on the measurement. Note: These values are only as an example, real values can and will be completely different. All electronic moisture meters only give you an indication and not a real accurate value. It does not really matter which meter you use as long as you use the same meter all the time. Only then you can compare the readings and can you get a pretty good indication. A reading of 20% on bass wood is not the same as 20% on pine wood. If bass wood with 20% moisture in your wood burner works fine this will not automaticly mean that it is also fine for an other species of wood. For pine it may be your meter will have to read 18% for the wood to be good for your wood burner. Maybe it will be good with a reading of 24%. He, any reading could be good. All this means you have to make a list of all the wood spicies you use and the readings with your meter that give you the best results. Also don't be surprised when you buy wood that shows 15% on the meter of the seller and your meter shows 18%. That is completely normal! Success.
We really enjoy all your videos. We never know what you will be talking about. GP Outdoors is as far as we are concerned one of the best channels on TH-cam. Thank you and have a great week.
GP Outdoors is one of my favorite TH-cam channels! I haven't missed an episode since I started watching! I have been thinking about getting myself a moisture meter for testing my firewood. Thank you for the timely video!
Another interesting video from GP outdoors! I have a Ligno moisture meter which is supposed to be good quality but have never tested it. I do know that wood that has been in my wood shop for a couple years and is completely dry reads around 6 percent which makes sense. From experimenting I have found different readings in the same piece of firewood. Measure it in the middle and the moisture is higher, the outer edges will have less since wood dries from the outside in. Split the wood in half and take another reading in the center, this will be much higher. This is where I measure to decide if the wood is ready to burn. Keep up the good work Gord! Bill
Good evening Gord. I use a General MMD4E meter… I got it a few years ago just to check my wood. With that being said I have never trusted it at all.. I seasoned my wood by time I had it drying. Split Oak needs at least two years. Maple a year… I didn’t burn much of anything else. I did start cutting Beach the last few years and that drys fast. Cut it in the spring and burn it that winter. I did one year buy wood and it was mostly Ash. That you can pretty much cut today and burn it in a few weeks. But…. As I told you I gave up burning wood and went to pellets.. So much less work all the way around. I do cut some wood just to get out to play and sell a cord or two.. little play money and some good out door time. That is priceless to me. Play with the saw and tractor and splitter. Great review.. Thanks for sharing. I did catch the few little things on the bench behind you at Guys.. Yes I have them too. Hahahaha He has a few more hidden talents… 👍 As always stay safe and always be kind Cheers
Thank you GP Outdoors for sharing. Nowadays our firewood consumption is low, but I have 3 basement renovations in the works so the newest meter may be finding it's way into my tool box very shortly, thanks.
In the 30+ years I have been burning wood for heat in my house, I have never ever used a moisture meter to check the firewood! I didn't even know it was a thing until I saw another you tuber showing one. Personally, I just try and go by the old theory of letting my cut, split, and stacked wood sit for at least six months before I burn it. Preferably I cut wood this year for next year's heating season, or even better 2 years out. That being said, it was still an interesting video to watch. 😁👨🚒
Great review on the moisture meter. Firewood moisture means soot residue that accumulates in your chimney and if you're smoking fish, bacon etc. Thanks, GP Outdoors for the best way for accurate moisture readings.
@@GPOutdoors how should measurement be perfomed, along the fiber, across te fiber or over the cutting section? Does it say in the instructions? Is there difff in readings? I think moistmeter has temperature correction. Where is the tempsensor located? Maybe device needs to have same temperature as the wood. Looks like one of the meters is not calibrated, it just gives 20% higher readings eg 25>30٪. Would be interesting to open it up, is there an adjusting screw?
Yet another example of why GP Outdoors is such a great channel to view great and useful content. Well done Gord and it's great you can attract companies that try to treat your viewers the same way you do. It's a great feeling to give, when possible.
I have purchased equipment that GP Outdoors has reviewed over the years with no regrets, having a sawmill and this year building a kiln a moisture meter was on the radar to get. Thanks for the review and looks like one way or another I will be picking one up. Cheers
GP Outdoors I thank you for your research. We just had a near catastrophe burning too wet wood. The creosote (?) Build up caught fire in our chimney. Live and learn. We were told this was dry aged wood, but we need to take this extra step to be sure. Thank you again.
We run a small bandsaw lumber mill here and use a mastercraft pin style.Questional how acurate but it does show the differance from fresh off the mill to a certain amount of air dry.Thanks to GP Outdoors l now know some of the options.
Thanks for the introduction to the TOPTES TS630; I’ve been needing to grab a moisture meter for my firewood, and this looks like a great option. GP Outdoors is one of my favourite channels; always informative and always positive vibes! 😎👍
GP Outdoors ...I continue to watch your videos ever since you brought home your 1st Kubota tractor and attachments. Along with the entertainment value, I've absorbed some valuable tips along the way. Keep it up.
I find it interesting as I’m an engineer. Didn’t know anyone cared about moisture in firewood. I knew building materials it was important. Please do a video on the pros and cons of moisture in firewood!!!
Thank you GP Outdoors for comparing these 3 moisture meters. I’ve been thinking of getting one for measuring moisture in my firewood and also I bought an Alaskan sawmill and would like a meter to read moisture in the lumber.
Thank you for the information and enjoying watching GP Outdoors. I use a General MMS4E moisture meter. Assumption is it is accurate, however without testing against known moisture contented wood, you cannot calibrate the meter and rely on the manufacture to tell you it is accurate
Good job with the comparing of those three moisture meters Gord and Guy. That does give a fair shake for the meters. Good luck to those entering to win the giveaway of the moisture meter. Thanks for sharing with us and keep up the good work and videos and keep having fun around there. Fred.
Hi Gord, I've been watching GP Outdoors for a few years now and really enjoy your videos. Good job with this one, honest and forthright as usual and not overly complicated!
This video represents what I feel is GP Outdoors most valuable asset. You provide brand comparisons, specifications, and technical data for not only moisture meters, but many outdoor products and equipment that I find interesting. Keep up the great work Gord. Cheers.
Interesting, I have been thinking for a while about getting one of these to keep and eye on my wood at camp. Glad GP Outdoors did the work for me in checking these out. Cheers
GP Outdoors is the best!!! If you are bringing cold wood indoors and testing it for moisture, chances are the cold wood might get a layer of moisture on it just because of the temperature change. Like when your glasses fog up when you come inside from the cold. It is good you did some tests outside on cold wood. I have a General MMD4E moisture meter. I chose this one because it has a calibration check you can do to make sure it is reading correctly. But as a wise person once told me, "The man with two watches never knows what time it is"! Nice video, Gord. Cheers!
Thank you for reviewing, really appreciate the comparisons, especially after I bought a Harbor Freight one in the store couple of days ago that does not read any moisture in anything. Taking that back. Ordered the TopTes today. Combining their 20 percent off and a discount code from another reviewer, I got it for US $18 and change before tax. Thanks again.
GP Outdoors is a great channel and has informative and much needed information. Plus where can you go to see a cast of characters like Guy and Husky Bob. HUSKY!!
Thanks Gord. Enjoy your no nonsense approach for the videos on GP Outdoors. Appreciate the no extra BS or histrionics found on similar content makers. Agree with other responders that the exact same testing sites should be used for more accurate cross comparisons. All the best
Well ,well, well, Mr. Gp Outdoors. Thats a nice moisture meter you got there. I´m sure it would look nice next to my chainsaw ;) I recently started a little one man logging bussiness and one of these might come in handy in the future. But on a serious note, thank you for all the work you put into your videos and the things you give away to your community. Keep it up and stay safe!
GP Outdoors knocks it out of the park again with a great review of the Moisture Meter Comparison, Great Job Gord...Stay Safe & God Bless...Chief..{NYS/ADK}...
I started off using a general moisture meter, but grew frustrated with the durability of the pins. I bought a Tavool during a holiday sale. so far the pins have been very durable even when pushing on oak. With out having any other meters i cant comment to the accuracy, but i have yet to burn any wood with moisture bubbling out so i cant help but trust it for now. Thanks for the great content and honest reviews GP Outdoors
Thankz GP Outdoors. My cheepy from Lowes definitely gives different readings when I bring the wood in. I think the wood iz like a sponge for humidity. I get about 5 degrees difference after l let it heat up beside the woodstove.
Great video, Gord! The content GP Outdoors provides is always enjoyable to watch and very helpful. Thanks, always! I have a General moisture meter (Model MMD4E) purchased though Amazon. It has two settings - one for wood and one for building materials - and claims to be accurate +/- 2%. I can't speak to the accuracy of this meter in the context of a comparison with other meters like the test you performed. The benefit I get from this meter is to know which wood I have is the driest according to the readout. I burn the driest wood first (preferably in the teens/low 20s).
Great information, GP Outdoors. I use a mastercraft meter and always wondered about the accuracy. I do believe you need to split the wood immediately prior to testing the moisture to get an accurate reading as the surface will be drier.
The absolute precision of a moisture meter is more of a concern for furniture makers than it is for firewood. Any firewood that measures below 20% moisture content is considered dry and ready to burn. Glad to see this meter is reasonably priced and is as accurate as Guy's meter that costs $100.
Good one, GP Outdoors! I have been meaning to buy a moisture meter for a while now but haven't done my homework yet. Definitely need one for both my firewood and now my milled lumber.
Good Evening GP, YOU ARE IN THE REAR DRUMMER FLIPPING BEAT STICKS MAAAN AN OUTSTANDING AT IT 👍🎵👌😇 Outstanding Topics and very well done ( INPUT DATA ) Too GP 🧐👍Some Members of My family were or still are professional Forestry Engineer and They use a moisture meter with a small hammering ponder so the needles goes at least 1/2 inch inside the wood but these professional are extra expensive like the ( Cole-Parmer is one of them ) around 1k $ but what they told me is they were very surprised about the very near readings of some cheap wood moisture meters 🧐👍 OUTSTANDING video GP Cheers 🍻🍻
GP Outdoors love the videos!I have been in restoration/ water damage work for 20 years. So i use moisture meters daily The main meters that i know and trust are Fair, Ex Tech. I have checked the accuratcy throughout my career. Keep up the great content!
Gord, you make some very nice videos. They are informative, entertaining, and introduce me to new ideas or methods to handle problems on my property. GP Outdoors is an excellent channel and I recommend it to my friends. Thank you for what you do and God Bless.
Great Video, GP. I have just one meter, a Stihl. Never came to mind that a second one to test the tester would be in order until I watched this. I enjoy the GP Outdoors videos! I could almost smell the coffee as you and Guy sit at the table comparing notes! Thanks!

Thanks GP Outdoors for all you do for your faithful audience! All the best, Jeff
Great video on the meters but I was always told to split the wood and check on the new split wood. GP Outdoors is one of my favorite channels.

Thanks for the in-depth review. As always, GP Outdoors, no holds barred review and feelings. Have a great week.
Another great video by GP Outdoors. Very interesting comparison. You sure got me questioning the accuracy of my moisture meter.
GP Outdoors this review was spot on. Thank you for the information. Appreciate you and the company giving one away.
Hi Gord,
Very informative video as usual. Keep up the good work.
I watch all of the GP Outdoors videos.
Cheers
GP Outdoors producing a great informational video again! Thanks GP!
The moisture meter is a handy and important tool in my tool box. Love watching GP Outdoors. Keep making informational and inspiring videos.
Good morning GP Outdoors I could really use that moisture meter at work. I am a home builder and could use it quite often. Enjoy your videos.
GP Outdoors is a great channel and has informative and much needed information. Plus where can you go to see a cast of characters like Guy and Husky Bob. HUSKY!!
Cool comparison video GP. I always look forward to the GP Outdoors videos you post. Thanks for all your awesome videos. Dan

Thank you GP Outdoors for the information and the giveaway! I have been looking for a meter and your video helped me a lot.
Thank you, GP Outdoors, for providing this comparison. It was very interesting
Thanks, Gord. And thanks to GP Outdoors for helping us choose between quality and lesser equipment.
GP Outdoors great comprehensive review and comparison on different devices. Really enjoyed this, thanks for posting!
Always a good review that included a woodworker that dries boards for 2 years, so no gimmicks here, thanks GP Outdoors. Cheers and stay safe

I have been wanting to add a moisture meter to my firewood tools. Thanks GP Outdoors for making this available...
Very good review, thank you. Unfortunately I already purchased the Dr Meter but will be ordering the Toptes TS-630.
Hi there GP Outdoors.
Good moisture meter review. I agree that the two meters are most likely the good ones. Cheers. Pete
Great review GP. I enjoy your unbiased, observation based approach to reviewing new products. GP Outdoors is one of my most trusted channels.
Another very informative video from GP Outdoors. Thank you Gord.
Once again we get good information from the GP Outdoors channel.
Thanks GP Outdoors for your review of moisture meters.
