There's many choices when it come to moisture meters. Wanted to ask which ones you guys recommend?

Thanks for your help.

Everyone has their favorite. It's hard to find a really bad one. Get a two-pin type and you'll be fine. This is the one I have now and I like it a lot for it's size and convenience. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZCBOQNY/?tag=hearthamazon-20

One of the most recommended ones here is the General Tool model which is commonly available at HD locally.

They all work on the same basic principal, but some are more physically rugged than others. I broke my first one because I pushed it too hard a few times and the bulkhead fractured. The one I replaced it with above is better that way.

Good on you for asking the question.
