John, I will get back to you on the other questions, but is there a reasonably priced quality moisture meter? Bought one a few years ago... I think ex got it in the dee-vorce, but the joke's on her. It showed moisture everywhere I checked. I think it would show wetness in baby powder.
Yes, I use the General Instruments model MMD7NP. It is about $45 now. Lowes and Amazon have them. Shop for best price.
See this post on the Sunline forum, I did a write up on it there years ago. I should do a post of it here on RV net. Any one owning an RV, will need one at some point, especially if anyone is buying a used camper.
https://www.sunlineclub.com/forums/f71/moisture-meters-for-inspecting-a-camper-17613.htmlThere is a PDF file in that post at the end that talks about using the meter and how to read the scale in "wall mode" from 0 to 100% wetness. Wall mode is not % moisture, it is a scale of wetness that is very useful in detecting leaks in a camper. I can't figure out how to link that PDF file here, you have to join the Sunline forum to get the whole document. But I took a pic of page 2 and can show the one page with the scale here for you.
In case you cannot read it at 640 pixels wide, here is the larger pic on my Flickr photo hosting site.
