  • 40-dot tri-color LED bar graph plus jumbo LCD show readings at a glance

Dual-mode moisture meter

The General Tools MMD900 combines pin and pinless sensing in one handheld instrument. It measures wood moisture content directly or scans relative dampness behind surfaces without penetration. A remote probe on a 46 inch cable extends reach into cavities and tight spots. The tool is aimed at contractors, woodworkers and homeowners who need to verify building materials are dry.

Suited for mixed-material inspection

Users who must switch between destructive pin readings on lumber and non-invasive scans of drywall, concrete or tile will benefit from the two modes. The tri-colour LED bar graph and audible alarm give instant wet-zone feedback. Buyers who only need a basic pin meter for firewood or a dedicated deep-scanning device for thick concrete slabs should consider simpler or more specialised alternatives.

Reads surface and subsurface dampness

Pin mode displays percentage wood moisture equivalent while pinless mode detects moisture up to 2 inches behind walls and ceramic tile. The 40 segment LED bar graph shows low, medium and high levels at a glance. Auto-zero calibration and a hold function lock readings for recording. Auto power-off after 3, 5 or 10 minutes preserves the 9 V battery during extended job-site use.
