Not sure if it's available now, but it was under £20 and well worth the money. I would check out the reviews on some of the cheaper ones and take your pick.
I check my van a couple of times a year and take preventative action if necessary. It might sound daunting to reseal any joints, but in fact it's quite simple. Basically, just remove trim, clean surfaces, reapply sealer and refix trim.
Just buy yourself a draper damp tester it also double as a voltage/metal detector, as a qualified building surveyor I have been using one for years. It will never be a substitute for a profesional meter, but will be good enough for your needs.
If you place the prongs on the back of your hand you will here a faint buzz, if you lick the back of you hand and replace the prong the buzz will be louder
Does it really matter if it costs pennies for a meter from eBay china, all you need is it to tell you if you have damp, i bought a cheap one it reads dry where its dry and damp where its damp I had damp and just resealed the area outside, no big deal damp is damp or it just rains inside, I don't think you need to be that precise its dry or damp full stop. model/ Md 2g £6.59eBay incl pp
Thanks for your common sense advice. I was wondering what meter to buy but I think I will just go for a cheap one from E-Bay. If it does not work - I know where you live! See you on the Moroccan trip in February.

I've been using >>one of these meters<< for some years now, both on the caravan, and now the MH.
When a "so called" caravan engineer refuted it's readings, I arranged to borrow one from Pioneer Caravan's workshops, a well known and reputable caravan outlet near us. Theirs was exactly the same meter.
I find it extremely reliable, and on four or five occasions when searching for used MHs, it saved us a fortune, by not spending our hard earned cash on someone else's problems.
Regards,
Jock.
