## Overview

Featuring a large, easy-to-read LCD with 0.1% resolution, an acoustic alert, and a handy hold function, it ensures accurate moisture detection even in hard-to-access areas.

## Description

Product Description The Moisture Detector MD from Brennenstuhl impresses with its quality and safety in all areas. It allows a quick and easy determination of the moisture in different materials and can also be used in poorly accessible places thanks to the hold function. The measuring device switches off automatically 3 minutes after the last use and also convinces with the following features:Display via large LCD display (in percent, resolution 0.1%) and acoustic (can be switched off)Robust, ergonomic housing with separate compartment for 9 V monobloc batteryInclusive Battery low voltage displayWith protective cap Set Contains: 1 x MD Moisture Detector

Review: solid build - Well made. Seems to be accurate, as repeated tests show same results, and are within a tight range of a professional wood moisture tester. Useful to know the readings at different places in a crawl space. High reading can point to a hidden source of moisture, such as behind insulation or below a sometimes dripping duct. Can provide early detection of mold or fungus creating conditions, so the condition can be mitigated.
Review: At least it gives me something! - I had a water issue in my basement (in a corner, from the wall) and part of my cement floor was wet. I dried it for weeks and put the flooring back down. I'm now suspicious every time it rains and this at least gives me an idea of how wet it might be under the flooring. It's easy to use, easy to see the face of it. It's maybe not quite as accurate as the $$$ meter the waterproofer guy used, but it does give me an idea and some peace of mind.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ easy to use
*by J***. on April 8, 2021*

This detector is so easy to use. You just insert into the wall for seconds, then it will beep, with the number shown on screen, which is also easy to read. Hope the two needles could be bit longer so the accuracy should be improved more to my private opinion.
