RO/DI water Ph is 9.0(!) but with the same almost instant Ph drop down to 6.9 after ph probe swirling in the glass.

Did anyone else tested their RO/DI water Ph?
Or even better Ph INSIDE the water filter?
What unit of measure is your TDS reading, certainly not PPM.

When you refer to the "PH drop", I doubt if the PH is changing that rapidly, most likely it is the PH probe stabilizing. Think about it for a second, PH changing from 8.5 to 7 in 30 seconds without any additives is virtually impossible.
