I want to make sure I lee my salinity at exactly 1.026 so I need a refractometer. I want a good quality one but don't want to spend too much. There are some on Amazon for $30 with good reviews and free 2 day shipping. BRS has one on sale right now for $24.99 that looks good. Or should I just spend the $120 and go digital. Anyone have a digital and love it? I really care about two things Accuracy and Quality. I love quality made products that last. What is the accuracy between a refractometer and a digital one?

Thank you! Hope the Xmas party went well I missed you all!
 
buy any type if you ask me. Just make sure you have calibration fluid and test/calibrate your Refractometer Every time you use it.
 
Go for the brs one since it comes with calibration fluid it's the one I use. The only thing I don't like about it is if you drop it in water it's done. I dropped mine in my rodi bucket and it sucked in water and had to get a new one
