Review: Reasonably Reliable Tool - I'm a general contractor and I find myself occasionally having to test for moisture in a client's home. This is my second General Tool moisture meter. This model - the MMH800 - has more functions then my previous one including the ability to test for moisture as well as providing a temperature readout. The meter is a dual-function pin and pin-less model which allows testing without leaving holes in walls or woodwork. I had the opportunity to be on a customer site with a mold remediation tech who was taking moisture readings to determine possible wet areas that might have been contributing to a mold issue. The tech didn't tell me the model he was using other than it was a professional -series, scan-only type and that it was very accurate with a good scan depth. When I compared my readings from the MMH800 with the tech's meter I found very little differences in the readings. There is one inherent limiting factor with all pin meters and that is they only test to the depth of the pins, useful on drywall or wood but very limited on masonry and/or concrete. Concrete testing is virtually unreliable due to the penetration issue. The ability to take a scan reading alleviates some of that issue. What I like most about the MMH800 is that is reasonably accurate and affordable. Adding a moisture meter (along with a good gas sniffer) to my tool bag provides data which ultimately allows me to better serve my customers.
Review: Functionality - Have purchased this before but returned it last time as I couldn't get the calibration process to work or it was malfunctioning. This time I realized using the longer pins that I cannot put the cap back on. This kind of defeats the purpose in addition to only having it 6 months or less and the calibration does not appear to be working for either the wood or bldg materials range. Will be reaching out to warranty dept. Been tough finding a good moisture meter that lasts.

## Features

- HUMIDITY SENSOR: Our combo meter tool can quickly determine what level of remediation is needed to keep your family safe from black mold. High levels of dampness that go untreated are the leading cause of harmful fungus growth in the home.
- WATER LEAK DETECTOR: Finding the moisture content in your floors, plastered walls, and wood is the first step in early prevention. Continuously check and test suspicious water stains around the house so you can determine if the area is wet or dry.
- MOISTURE READER: The mold test features 2 dedicated displays, moisture percentage, ambient temperature, and relative humidity. Our mildew scanner includes audible and visual indications of high, medium, and low moisture levels with a °F/°C switch.
- MOLD TESTER: This tool features both pin-type and pinless (flat pad) surface sensors for an accurate test read on larger areas. Once moisture patches are detected, flip open the cap to expose the pin sensors for more exact content readings.
- GENERAL TOOLS: We're a recognized leader in designing and developing specialized precision tools dedicated to delivering exceptional customer service. We encourage artisans and DIYers to work smarter, measure better, and repair more productively.
