screen moisture meter at Lowes for $30!

I already have 3 hydrometers in my drying room, but would like to look into buying a moisture meter to reduce the guessing game.

I just want to know if the $30 lowes moisture meter works for screen printing.

Thanks.

I've been using that model for a while now and it works.  It's a lot like the temp gun in that I don't believe it gets a super accurate reading but you can still use it with success.  I'll test a screen that has been in the dark room for a week up against one that is only a few hours old and the freshest screen will read around 6% and the completely dry screens don't read anything most of the time.

Cool thanks Alan. I might build one or get one to play around with.
