I'm FAR from an expert on test kits or the chemistry behind them but if I were getting different readings from the same kit, I'd be suspicious. Either the kit's gone bad, been contaminated somehow or you're doing something wrong.

I can't see how a company like Elos could produce a product that simply did not work !

Just my $0.02 worth.
