The Bosch UniversalHumid is a handheld wood-moisture meter designed to measure the moisture content of wood using a pin-type method. It’s intended for tasks such as checking firewood, evaluating wood before using it for construction or finishing (parquet, furniture, building), preventing mold or deformation, or generally determining whether wood is suitably dry for use.
Key Features
The Bosch UniversalHumid is a handheld wood-moisture meter designed to measure the moisture content of wood using a pin-type method. It’s intended for tasks such as checking firewood, evaluating wood before using it for construction or finishing (parquet, furniture, building), preventing mold or deformation, or generally determining whether wood is suitably dry for use.
Key Considerations
Moisture-measurement method: Pin-type (conductivity) — requires inserting two metal pins into the wood.
Wood-type selection: Two selectable wood-groups (to calibrate for different species/types) to improve accuracy.
Measurement range & accuracy: Wide measurement ranges — approx. 7.1% to 74.7% (Group A) or 6.4% to 61.9% (Group B). Accuracy ± 1%.
Ease of use & feedback: Simple operation: stick pins in wood → read the value; the meter includes a LED “traffic-light” style indicator to quickly show dry/OK/wet status.
Because the UniversalHumid uses two metal probe pins inserted into the wood, the reading reflects actual internal moisture content where the pins contact. This method is generally more reliable than surface-only (visual) checks, especially when evaluating firewood, lumber, or wood for furniture or flooring. It’s useful for final moisture-checks before woodworking, painting, or burning.
These factors represent the most critical aspects that will impact your satisfaction with this product.
Customer Reviews
works well for my projects, is a necessity in milling rough lumber to furniture build. my wood boiler needs 20% and less moisture for a clean burn and a clean flue liner.
very good product. works and is useful.
