Hi Blaxsun I’m looking test total dissolved solids in RODI water before I use it. I use a refractometer to test salt.

Blaxsun - I’m a little dopey. If possible I would like one that tests both salt and fresh. If that’s possible. Thanks

I know you said handheld, but I have this one hooked up to my RODI system. 225-245 going in, 0 coming out. Works great. Amazon product ASIN B001EHAZGW

Btw, I don't think TDS meters work well with salt water, because..... salt registers as a dissolved solid. At least according to the swimming pool store that tests my 'saltwater' swimming pool water. :)

Not sure where or even when I got it .
but works great
