What's a value for money PH meter

Hi all,

i'm looking for a value for money (read: cheap and good) pH meter.

any recommendations?

i have a weipro pH controller, but recently decommed it, as it cannot be calibrated above 7. (i figured it's spoilt)

am thinking of getting american pinpoint... good? just not sure if i should get a pH controller, as it can be used to hook up my 'left-there-to-collect-dust' CR.

IMO, think u can just stick to ph monitor as once u use yr ph controller for cr, u can't use it to monitor yr tank ph as the controller will now Aids the operation for yr cr. For yr cr, some ppl just use timer and on when light is on and off when light is off. All the best in yr search.

Wilson,

do u want to monitor or do u want to have a fuss free ph control system. More cluttery with cr and co2 if u choose the latter. Hopefully u already have a solenoid and is ready to top up co2 from time to time. For simplicity, I will just go with pinpoint and perform weekly cal dosage. Personally, I would prefer to know what's happening to my tank and do manual interventions if time permits. Go with pinpoint, cannot be wrong. Just that u are reccommended to change the probe every 18 months.
