What happens here

The host uses a TOPTES wood moisture meter (TS-630) to check the moisture content of the stacked firewood. He explains that a green light on the meter indicates the wood is ready to burn, while orange means it's not quite ready, and red means it's too wet. He measures several pieces, showing percentages around 16-17%, which is suitable for burning.

Goal: Determine if firewood is properly seasoned for burning.
