Atlas-scientific conductivity probe for salinity monitoring?

[FranklinDattein]

Hi reefers,

has anyone tried that? I was wondering if it is any good, before I spend the money on one.

I am planning to get the K10 probe, with a UART isolated circuit and hook to my RPI based controller.

Wow is that pricey. I wonder how accurate it is compared to the " lab grade" probes that BRS and Neptune sell for example

 

[FranklinDattein]

Atlas is expensive because it is a complete stand alone solution.
The probes from BRS and Neptune would still require a controller, like the apex salinity extension. At the end, they are pretty much the same price.

True

I haven't tried, yet. At least you reminded me I have it sitting in the drawer with no use.
