Welcome to Reef2Reef!

There are a lot of inexpensive pH pens available on Amazon. I've not used that one, but it only has two point calibration - I prefer ones that can calibrate with 3 points.

I bought the VIVOSUN Digital pH and TDS Meter Kit on Amazon for $15 and it comes with a TDS meter! It has 3 point calibration, but I have NOT compared it to a lab pH meter, so I cannot vouch for its overall accuracy.

Generally, the ones with replaceable probes are a bit more accurate and last longer because you can replace the probe. Apera makes some, but they run about $130.
