2.0 out of 5 stars Nice meter - did not work for us, December 16, 2008

This review is from: Delmhorst Accuscan 6% to 40% Pinless Analog Wood Moisture Meter (Tools & Home Improvement)

We prefinish siding in a factory and have used several different types of meters. Our most consistent model was a pinless Wagner L606 analog, which looks similar to this Accuscan model. We had hoped that the wider range and dual scale on the Delmhorst Accuscan would work well for both wood and cement siding materials, so we ordered one to try.

The needle danced irratically and was generally too lively to get a good reading. I saw inconsistent readings on the materials I sampled. I believe that the unit I purchased may have been damaged or otherwise out of calibration. Due to immediate need for true readings in our factory, I decided to forego a replacement and went back to the Wagner L606 analog which has worked extremely well for us for a long time. We decided if it's not broken, don't fix it.
