Truly a waste of life

takes too long to read in liquid and soil, but in soil it's a coin toss if it does anything. For example I have a 7.5 and 4.5 ph environment, this thing will sit in either one and call it 7.0 but sometimes it gives the right reading. $10 Pen in Fluid Speed Reading. Didn't even think of sticking a regular pH pen straight into the environment, but it works and is way faster than this thing every time. Just make sure that good calibration comes naturally with this product. It's a joke, maybe I'dโ€ฆ

It works if you read the instructions!

I read reviews of the Revain BEFORE I bought this unit and quickly realized that the two main issues people had were that the probe holder was not included and that you calibrate must do this after each use. Well the probe holder was attached and I didn't realize it at first until I looked at it carefully and then I realized I had to unscrew it first and gently pull it out. When you take out the probe holder, there should be solution inside, so be careful. If there is no lid or solution whenโ€ฆ

The new block is not calibrated. The replacement works fine.

block, does not want to calibrate. Soak the probe in the storage solution for 24 hours. The probe is not calibrated. Contacted Blue Lab, they said to return it. How good it is for me to be able to sing and dance the RETURN song because they sent me a broken product. If you lived as far from a UPS office as I do, you wouldn't want to return either. Replacement has arrived. It is correctly calibrated and delivered reproducible results in 14 test areas. You will need a calibration solution for the

It's like any chemistry set, but with extra steps.

$150 could have added small bags of KLC and/or cleaning solution or calibration fluid (or up the price to 200, I paid 150, could pay 50 more). It's very accurate, but drifts incredibly quickly, requiring cleaning and recalibration after each use to keep readings accurate. If you're looking for a consistent way to measure your soil's PH without buying a $150 PH pen (and 4 $10-15 bottles of essential fluids needed for proper function). , simply water your substrate with PH-balanced water. andโ€ฆ
