I purchased 2 of these in a tank tear down
Test, alk,calcium, mg, phosphate, nitrate and nitrite ad maybe in the future iron?
I will be continuing to run one on my tank but do not need 2 of them, it has been fully upgraded and has been and currently is in use on my quarantine tank and is testing great,
the new reagents cost 150$ for a 6 month supply off of an ebay seller, you get to choose how many tests you do daily/weekly and set your own schedule so if you test a lot it will go faster and if test a couple times a week it will last longer, I believe the average is about 87 tests per reagent bottle?
I will provide whatever “new” reagents I have left when it is purchased and a full set of “old” unopened expired reagents. I can’t guarentee that the unopened box you receive will test as accurately as the 2 boxes I have ran in my other unit for the last year but it’s worth a shot as the units came with 4 unopened sets
There is a rumor that they will be releasing them in the USA in October which might hopefully make reagents cheeper with lower shipping costs
From what I have experienced so far other than time zone issues the customer support is fantastic and they are constantly working on hardware upgrades and pushing updates to the device if problems are found,
As far as noise I would put it as quieter than the trident but a bit louder than a dosing pump, loudest part is when the magnet stir is working
Testing lines up very closely with Hanna checker and icp tests that I have done but there is a way of manually adjusting the parameters if they are off and also rumors of a calibration solution in the works.
I have upgraded the reaction chambers (old ones will be included in sale) and added the pinch valve for the cleaner reagent
App is user friendly and alerts you if there is a test that comes back outside your set parameters or fails,
If there is any other questions feel free to let me know, there isn’t much on the forums about these from what I have seen compared to other testers
Looking to get $950 with buyer paying for shipping
