I've been using it for more than a year. It is read in ppm and if I need to convert it dKH or meq/L,I just use calculator of ReefMaster app on my iphone. Easy to use just like other Hanna photometers. I just haven't verified the accuracy though. I hope to have time tonight.

 

[secretreefer]

I also recently got it. And you have to convert the read out but it was dead on to what I got from salifert test. INHO the measure syringe in hard to read so I cleaned and now use the one from the salifert test. I have the Phos also, I plan on getting the Calcium tester. I only wish the Phos used a liquid like the Alk and not a powder. I am always unsure if I got all of the power out of the packet.

 

[secretreefer]

cool. anyone did testing cross referencing salifert or api kits?

Zoas doing good, darn good! Survived pretty well compared to other zoas I have when I moved and upgraded. LMK what you have. PM me for my upgraded tanks ready to accept living things now. I'll try to purchase Salifert to cross reference em with Hanna.

I searched iphone app store no hits but I googled it, found it but can't find it in app store. All google links are a least a year old wonder if it is no longer available.

 

[secretreefer]

hmmmmmm well that's gonna have to suck. i'll pm nautilus for more info.

I love mine so far, very quick to use, very consistent, less chance of user error in reading the results. Just multiply by .056 (i think) to convert to dkh. At this point I have kinda learned the correct range so I don't bother converting it anymore.

 

[secretreefer]

good to know. i'm liking these positive reviews from users. i really appreciate it guys! been having a alk swing lately and lost some really really nice frags due to it....

Too bad I checked RM pro but seems not avail no. Reef Calc seems a better alternative but kinda expensive at $18.99. But hey, I'm still considering buying it just save me from any catastrophe. I'll wait for your email buddy!
