Sometimes we want to raise or lower the pH, but we also want to make sure we follow this rule with the right product to then neutralize the skin's pH. Using these strips is a great visual aid and makes learning (for me and understanding…

Pros
  • Get fast and accurate pH 0-14 results

Really struggled with weak bases.

I bought these strips to test drinking water from a residential well and when the pH of the water was around 7.5 to 9.5 these strips showed around 6.5 up to 7.5.

Once the pH got past the 9 or 9.5 mark they seemed accurate again, but I haven't tested this with a known accurate strip or meter to know for sure. They also seemed accurate for acids. It took me about half a day to figure out what was going on as we tried to get the…

Pros
  • Results in 3-5 seconds
