I would agree with ease of reading but that's about it. Despite the fact it won't require a specific kind of calibration fluid you will still need a verified fluid so that's really a moot point. Price sounds compatible which is good but really what will kill this product is the constant need for calibration, unless you can insure reasonable accuracy using RO water for calibration fluid it's ultimately doomed to fail. A hobbyist will always need a supply of calibration fluid, if it is lost, spilled or contaminated the meter is useless until more fluid can be purchased. For something that is typically used all the time, often in emergency situations it just doesn't sound reliable enough.
