At what daily dosing level (per Randy's Recipe 1) does it make sense to switch to a calcium reactor?

It's hard to every cost justify a calcium reactor but at some point the convenience of not having to be continuously mixing and refilling 2-part adds value to me. Just not sure where that point is.
You got this part right.
I love my Geo reactor.
My Ph is stable as well as my alk, cal and mag.
I check my reactor Ph every day. Takes 3 seconds and im done, unless I need to make a slight adjusment to the effluent flow because it has slowed.(usually once a month)

I add 25ml esv once a day.
My tank is a 120 and 4 months old.
I have a tunze 3171 I will be running once I have a dedicated elecrtical outlet installed.
I run a minimal amount of kalk in my ato and maintain a ph of 7.9-8.1 now.
If I can keep that range with the calcium reactor I will be happy.
