I'm thinking about picking up one of these. I really like the simplicity of it. I'm your classic lazy reefer, and not very good about testing regularly. I'm also a bit OCD and always wondering if I'm guilty of human error when it comes to using test kits. I know...I know...if I'm doing it as instructed, I shouldn't worry...but darn it, I hate matching colors!! And this would eliminate that worry. So how many of you have tried it out, and what's been your experience?

This is their data sheet which lists the margin of error for each test. I think it looks pretty solid.

Is this an ad?
LOL Nope. I'm interested in buying one and looking to see what kind of experience people have had with them.

Hey Daniel,

I have not looked into them recently. I make lazy look enthusiastic.:) So I was looking at Hanna a while back to switch from salifert. Came across this one. Randy did not seem impressed, but 3 years is a long time @Randy Holmes-Farley

Yeah. I know they've been working on it. I've been following them at a lot of the reef shows, and it seems to have been improved a bit since then, but I haven't followed enough to really speak to how far. I just was looking at the current data sheet and thought it looked really solid. Maybe I need to test one out and report back...

I would volunteer but looking at the fact it works with an app sounds way to advanced tech for me:D. I still use hydrometers.

You should do this for your reef2reef family so we can know if we should go and buy one too!
