Is this worth buying??

[StupidsReef]

Is this worth buying or is it not a good unit. I like the Idea of being able to test both the incoming and then after the RO/DI unit. It doesn't seem to be to expesive so I'd like to get one, but thought maybe I'd ask here first. How about it Farmer your the equiment junkie what-cha think??

I have that same one on my RODI, it was $15 at filterguys.

 

[StupidsReef]

Really!! Cool thank Nick, I'll check them out. How do you like it?? Do you feel that it works well??

 

[ncox38]

Nevermind, when it is sold separately it is $35. Or im wrong and i did pay $35.

 

[ncox38]

I guess it works ok, i havent used any other ones.

I personally like the portable ones as you can take it where you need to go. Plus, it's like $19

Yea I just checked it too and this was it here from them http://cgi.ebay.com/Dual-Inline-TDS...QQihZ015QQcategoryZ46310QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem.

You might have got a deal if you bought something else.

I bought one for my RO/DI from Spectrapure.

Did you like it Mark?? IYO does it work well?? And can I order one of these from you??

I have that 1st one up there and it works great. The one issue I had with the portable ones is that it it easy to contaminate them with just about anything. Drop it on the floor and collec soem dust and it's off.... The in and out one works well for me and you always know where you left it last.

A very good point. I will be ordering it from Thereefstop.com

The one I have doesn't work at all - it always measures 0 TDS going in and out of the DI unit. It could be broken but most of the reviews I read say these inline meters don't work very well.

I like mine and it seems to work well.

I probably just don't know how to work mine . . . I'm kind of stupid some times.

If they work, then they are definitely more convenient that the hand held kind.
