I bought a General moisture meter at Lowe’s. How accurate is it and what% is considered
1- burnable but not great
2-Burnable
3-great wood
Obviously on a fresh split.

What if you are testing outside and it’s 90 degrees and humid. Does that throw it off?
Should I bring a piece in the house for a day and then split it and test it?
Testing at 90 will throw it off. Your better waiting untill the stack is near 70 degrees or bring the wood in the house for 5 hrs or so and then split it and test on the Fresh split face side. This will get you super close.. What species of wood did you get deliveredWhat if you are testing outside and it’s 90 degrees and humid. Does that throw it off?

I personally stay away from oak unless I have 3 yrs to stack it and forget it. I've had it for 3 yrs and it still wasn't below 25%. I now split oak very thin.
