Hey everyone, I’m having trouble deciding which automated alkalinity tester I should get. These are the three that seem to be the most popular. Leaning towards the Kh guardian due to good reviews and hearing about some issues with the alkatronic and trident although things may be different now in 2026.

Anybody have any thoughts on what works best for them?
 
I would never buy anything from focustronic support is terrible. I had a GHL KH Director loved it. However, sometimes leaked. I now have the KH Carer and love it.

One thing you have to think about that most don't is maintenance. Without a doubt all of them hoses,etc need to replaced yearly. KH Carer not hard to replace but many different size hoses not a big deal though and is made by Kamoer.

I still vote for KH Carer and has an app. Kamoer support is good
