Anyone seen this 6 in 1 monitor?

I haven't seen anyone suggest that this was going to be their approach. Standard practice in this hobby to have comparatives and redundancy. In my case, it's hanna and salifert to measure against.

Agreed. When mine arrives, I’ll try it in my DT to get a comparison against my Apex.

But it’s final home is my QT. Just want something that gives me a quick visual indication. I have Hannas to get detailed results.

Well, it’s finally in the States. Just need it to make its way to Texas now.

Ive been running mine for the last week. PH has been consistently within 0.05 of my hanna checker. Temperature has been accurate. Salinity measured in SG is accurate but in ppt its way off. I havent had a chance to try calibrate it yet so that could be the solution. Overall I'm pretty happy with it as i wanted it mostly for a quick PH reference and as a 2nd opinion on my inkbird for temp... would recommend.

Mine is in new jersey as of yesterday. hope it gets here soon.

can you post some pix of it along with the comparison?

Wow, that's pretty misleading. The 5th, temp, is measured by ordinary conductivity meters as well, so this is really a 2 in one: pH and salinity.

How can temp be extrapolated from conductivity? I understand TDS, salinity, and SG can but I would think temp is a separate probe.

In the ones I am discussing temp has its own probe.

A conductivity meter always consists of a set of 2 or 4 conductivity electrodes and a temperature sensor. It’s not that it is extrapolated, it’s that it must be measured and the conductivity corrected for temp.

There was a 40% promo available for me, decided to give it a go. Just a heads up if anyone is interested

Mine delivered yesterday.

Only 1 day, but measurements are matching up to my Apex.

Their website now has replacement probes. $59.99. I only paid $89 for the whole unit. But alas…

Seems like they marked it up and then gave you the discount to make it seem like a discount lol.

There is no doubt that China has been making better products lately. For $99 why not give it a try?

BanZI29 · Aug 29, 2023

I did get mine last sat. I just haven't had a chance to set it up. I will be posting unboxing pix and use pix as soon as I get some free time. Life is to frikin busy this week

Which measurements match?
