I have been able to test this using two other brands of test strips and a liquid test kit and found the water readings to vary dramatically at times. I'm not sure if the metal readings are accurate as I haven't had a chance to compare them yet but I would definitely NOT recommend these strips for testing nitrates and especially general hardness.
