Product Description
Your smart device will detect any Wagner Meters wireless device that features Bluetooth connectivity such as the Smart Logger or Orion 950 Smart Pinless Wood Moisture Meter, and perform the pairing procedure automatically. There is nothing you need to do, the devices do the work for you.
The Orion® 950 Smart Moisture Meter Kit includes:
- Orion 950 Wood Moisture Meter with Built-in Temperature/RH Sensor and backlight screen
- Paired On-Demand Calibrator
- Rubber Protective Boot
- Foam-lined ABS Plastic Carrying Case
- 9V Battery
- Species Settings Booklet
- Instruction Manual
- Common Flooring Materials Settings Reference Card
The Orion 950 Smart Pinless Wood Moisture Meter Kit features the Orion 950, carrying the Wagner tradition of superior accuracy forward with all of the features of the 910, 920, 930, and 940 meters and adding more. A flexible rubber boot makes the 950 durable enough to withstand your toughest jobs.
The Orion 950 joins the rest of the Orion line of meters in being the first in the industry to provide true in-the-field calibration capability with the included On-Demand Calibrator. Calibrate your Orion 950 at your location in about 30 seconds whenever you want.
The Orion line of wood moisture meters continues Wagner’s 50-plus year tradition of providing accurate, dependable non-damaging pinless moisture measurement technology, measuring IN the wood not just ON the wood, and backed by Wagner’s industry-leading 7-year warranty.
Meter Features:
Dual Depth Measurements
The 950 takes moisture readings in your wood from the surface down to .25” (6.4mm) in depth in the shallow scan mode or from the surface down to .75” (19mm) in the deep scan mode.
Bluetooth® App Enabled
The Orion 950 interacts through Bluetooth technology with free mobile apps for your Android or Apple smart device. The app is available on either Google Play or iTunes. You can receive and record data, set specifications for separate jobs, and much more!
To send readings data from the Orion 950 to the FloorSmart™ or Woodshop MC app on your smart device, follow these steps:
- Ensure that Bluetooth has been enabled on your smart device. The Orion 950 will automatically pair with your smart device when the power is on and the two devices are within Bluetooth range.
- Ensure that the DATA mode on the 950 is ON. Consult your Orion 950 manual for instructions.
- Open the FloorSmart or Woodshop MC app and enter a new job description or choose a current job to edit.
- Press the “Record” tab at the bottom left to access the “Record Readings” screen.
- Press the “Record” button at the top right to enable the app to record data from the Orion 950.
- Scan the target area with the Orion 950 and press the “ON/HOLD” button when you want to send a reading to the FloorSmart or Woodshop MC app.
Temperature and Humidity Sensor
Get the ambient temperature and relative humidity (RH) measurements of any room the Orion 950 is in with its built-in sensor. It’s like having an ambient conditions data logger and a moisture meter all in one!
Dew Point Calculations
The Orion 950 will calculate the dew point of the environment for you. Utilizing the built-in temperature and humidity sensor, the Orion 950 will calculate and display the current dew point whenever and wherever you need.
Equilibrium Moisture Content
The Orion 950 calculates the current equilibrium moisture content (EMC), which is the point when wood no longer gains or loses moisture. This meter also measures the moisture content (MC) of your wood at the time the reading was taken. EMC readings vary based on relative humidity and temperature, and for best results, you want the EMC and MC to be as similar as possible. When you have these readings, they help you know when your floor or wood projects are ready for installation or fabrication.
Grains Per Pound/Kilogram Mode
Grains per pound/kilogram (GPP/GPK) is a more precise measurement to know the exact weight of water vapor that is in the surrounding air. The Orion 950 will calculate and display instantly the grains per pound/kilogram, also known as the specific humidity of the air, compared to relative humidity.

Hater of the Year, Amazon Customer –
Very fast and accurate, the calibration and species selection is also key, along with ambient temperature and humidity detection and adjustable depth.
Josh Leavitt, Amazon Customer –
Best meter on the market.
Lemur, Amazon Customer –
Love this meter!
Kurt, Amazon Customer –
Very easy to use!
Bob, Amazon Customer –
Easier than my pin type to use and compared to the reading on the pin type 1/2 a point different and who which is on the money.
Mary, Amazon Customer –
Went around testing everything learning how it works
wa2paul, Amazon Customer –
Been waiting to buy this, finally figured if I am ever going to pull the trigger, now is the time. Very pleased with the performance and capabilities. No issues with purchase, plot delivery. All is great!
GRW, Amazon Customer –
I have used several meters. This is by far the best and most versatile. Customer support is fantastic; I used them for help with measuring various materials such as SPF hardwood and OSB subfloor. I would consider no other. There are much cheaper meters on the market; however, if you’re in the market for a meter you are only in the market for an accurate meter.

The moisture meter gives you an edge when working with wood. Putting out a great product one must understand the movement of wood and why. I chose Wagner because of their reputation. In the end, reputation is everything.
solidwood, Amazon Customer –
I have a saw mill and a woodworking shop. In the past, I simply let wood dry a couple of years in a barn. I bought the meter so I could shorten that time. What I like about the 950 is that it calculates the theoretical equilibrium moisture content. That is, for the temperature and humidity conditions where the wood is stored, what would the lowest moisture to which the wood can dry. With this info, I can increase temperature and/or decrease humidity to reach my target moisture content in a shorter time.

Great product! If you work with wood, DIY or Pro, you need this moisture meter. Much better than my pin meter on flat surfaces. Easy to operate with instant accurate readings. I used it today on rough sawn with no issues. Very happy!
James (verified owner) –
Great meter. Far more accurate than my pin meter and it doesn’t damage the surface. I use this meter to check moisture in slab lumber I use for table tops as well as green wood turnings.

Niko Kougias –
Wagner is, without a doubt, the best moisture meter company in the world and this is a beautiful device.
Robert –
Wagner makes the best wood moisture meters. I have been using them for over 25 years as a pro, and the Orion 950 is the fourth one for me (all of them still going strong). The added features on the 950 are a real game changer. By having relative humidity, temperature, and EMC at my fingertips I am able to make quick decisions at job-sites.
Blacktail Studio –
Can’t tell you how great this tool is. Had a slab air dried for six years and was about to build a desk for a client. Put the meter on it and was waaaaaay too wet (30%+) Confirmed reading at my local lumber supplier and got them to kiln dry it. All good now, disaster averted!
