Looking at Ph meters now....I can spend the $200 for a good one, but really don't want to have to learn yet another fuckin skill (so far, for this "hobby" of mine, I have had to become, electrician, plumber, carpenter, farmer, and more!)

Can anybody point me to a good, reliable, durable, accurate, and easy to use meter?

I second the Bluelab meter. It takes 5 sec to get a stabilized reading, my Hanna took 30 sec.
Whatever you do DO NOT get a Hanna, they are garbage. They are phasing out their pH meters to focus on other products btw. Hanna is probably doing this because they're losing so much money on their warranties. Most of their probes fail within 6 months, and the pen usually 8-12 months.

I don't trust those cheap ph meters, throw for a bluelab.

I ended up gettin' a bluelab. I have been dealing with an issue that might be Ph, and it will be worth it to know for sure that I have my Ph straight, even if it does not fix the issue.


Thanks, y'all!
