Moisture meters price quote in Uganda

What Affects Moisture Meter Prices

When you see different prices, several factors cause the variation:

1. Accuracy and precision — The better the sensitivity (e.g. ±0.2% vs ±1%), the higher the cost.

2. Range of materials or crops the meter is calibrated for — A device calibrated only for maize will cost less than one for maize, rice, beans, and coffee.

3. Additional features — LCD backlight, temperature compensation, data logging, auto-calibration, multiple probes etc.

4. Brand reputation — Well-known brands (Draminski, Wile etc.) often command higher prices.

5. Build quality & durability — A rugged meter with better parts will cost more but last longer.

6. After-sales service & warranty — Suppliers who provide calibration, spare parts, warranty etc., may price higher.

7. Import duty, shipping & availability — If a meter is imported or rare, those costs get pushed into the final retail price.
