Moisture Meter

I did some searching and didn't find any threads and or post that talked about a moisture meter. So, I have a moisture meter that I use to check the moisture of my fire wood.

That could probably be adding to my sight case Harding. My chamber is not a small dorm refrig, it's an old frig from the 1960's, not as big as todays models, but much bigger then the dorms.
