Abstract

A method of monitoring moisture inside a container includes placing a moisture sensitive product and an electronic moisture sensor (200) inside the container, using the electronic moisture sensor (200) to sense moisture conditions inside the container and, in response to a triggering event (108) initiated from outside the container, transmitting data (110) through the container. The transmitted data is relevant to an assessment of the moisture sensitive product's condition, based on the recorded data (106). Electronic moisture sensors (200) and systems are also provided employing similar methods.
