Well.. it's spot on when calibrating with both RO water, and PinPoint 1.026/SG 35 Calibration Fluid. So there's that...

I'm not tossing this tool around, it's just me doing the salinity test. when i received this unit, I used both RO water and Pinpoint Calibration Fluid to test it. i now normally recalibrate every 2 weeks (or see if its still calibrated.. because i have not had to play with the calibration knob.. ever.

if you were to come to my house, you'd see that i don't skimp.
No disrespect my friend. Was just throwing a little knowledge your way. RO or a bottle of mineral water, any distilled water. Float it in your tank/sump so it reaches your tank temp. Then zero out(calibrate) the refractometer. Regardless if it says atc. 😉
 
What reason do you have to believe that the PinPoint solution is "spot on" 🙃

I hope that it is, and I'm glad it's working for you, but please know it's entirely possible that the "store bought stuff" is "off". just something to keep in mind 🙂

Best of luck!
More a gimmick 🤪
