AND...AND.... Any test kit that requires you to count drops just can't be as accurate. Counting drops is just a bad way to do a titration. There's no accurate calibration of the drop size. It never fails that sometimes a smaller drop comes out because it picks up a bit of air bubble. What then? Do you count that as half a drop? A moment of distraction and you lose your count. A bit too hard a squeeze and 3 or 4 drops come out...was that 3 or 4 that just came out?

A bad idea all around.

+3, lol

I can't agree more....:wink:

i was using the old style elos mag test and always hovered around 1200-1300 when i got the new style one im always around 1500 and im not so shure i trust it all that much

I hate the drop count.

CRAP! I just went to Aquatic addictions today with the intention of buying the salifert, all they carried was ELos (aid they were sold out of salifert), so i bought the CA and KH test, then had to go to J&L to get the MG test. Seems like i would have been better off just rolling my money up and smoking it! Is there anywhere that carries the salifert regularily? Has anyone had problems returning un-opened product to either of these retailers?
