Review on Digital Meter Drinking Hydroponics Aquarium by Keith Alvord

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The pH controller sucks.

The pH pen in this kit is junk. At first it got stuck reading all zeros. After playing around with it for a while it seems to be behaving normally, I did the calibration at 4.01 and 6.86. Then I tested some distilled water and the meter read 8.0 at first, after 1 minute it read 6.5 and after about 2 minutes it read 6. I bought another one of those yellow pH pens and after the same calibrations the reading it gave just cracked. Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. The TDS test pen seems to work, with a bit of variability, although I don't have anything to compare as a benchmark. The temperature readings were stable and seemed correct.

Pros
  • LABORATORY DIGITAL PH METER: This PPM and pH meter is designed to measure the pH of chemicals quickly and accurately. It can be used in laboratory, classroom and other activities to help testers and students to conduct various pH measurement experiments. This is a good lab assistant
Cons
  • unreliable
