The two ram electrodes are pushed firmly into the wood or building material, where they measure the moisture content as a percentage based on the dry mass (dry weight).
There is a hold function and a backlit display, for use in all lighting conditions. A protective cap and belt bag ensure that the meter is stored safely, and a hand strap prevents the meter from being dropped.
