I had a heck of a time getting my (brand new) Neptune probe calibrated. I had to send it in for "diagnostics and repair." While waiting, I purchased a Milwaukee probe and BRS probe.
Once the Neptune probe was returned I tried all 3 and all 3 calibrated well. But would eventually drift within the week. Placing any of the probes in 7/10 solution (for at least 5 min) would show o .06 - .1 off.
Same goes for the Alkatronic that I now have plugged into PM1. While calibrating, Apex would read 10 and 6.99. Now .01 inaccuracy is reasonable in my opinion. But just a few days later it will start to drift. Alkatronic reading 9.45 and Apex displaying 9.51. Seems crazy since Apex isn't reading a probe in this instance.
Is an offset of .06 -.1 common? Since its happening with 4 different probes and 2 different modules, I'm wondering, what should my expectations be for these readings? Seems a bit much to me. Certainly not giving consistent readings anyway.
Thoughts?
