Anyone had issues with orange "homer" buckets??

Update: TDS 001
I am thoroughly convinced I contaminated the water somehow at this point. Test to continue, but believe it's an error on my end. If all checks out, plan to continue my orange bucket usage.
 
Those buckets are made from high density polyethylene (HDPE). They should not leech anything into water. TDS meters are very sensitive and can pick up on any dust or debris. Ensure the buckets and covers are clean and rinsed with RO.
 
I agree. Must have been a fluke on my end somewhere. Everything has checked out fine since. Thanks! Meant to update this thread a while back.
