TDS Meters - Need Recommendation

[William Morris]

After doing a little research it appears that the TDS meter industry is full of knockoffs.
What do you recommend for a quality hand held meter?

buy a couple of cheap ones from eBay, then if they match you know it’s probably a good reading.

I bought a HM Digital from Amazon that I'm pretty happy with. Temp and TDS measurements were accurate.

This one looks really nice - meter
Can be calibrated and they have the standard solutions.

I bought this one (com-100): Here
I also bought this 342ppm calibration fluid: Here

The meter is very accurate and I easily know when my di is ready for a change.

Interesting - looks like the one you linked and mine are the same - except mine states it's a Professional Series - whatever that means.

I recommend a good quality used conductivity meter with a 4 electrode probe, such as an Orion model 128 from ebay.
