nope, they should be tempature compensated. they don't give you a real PH reading persay but rather a "adjusted to 60 deg" PH reading.. or what ever temp they are compensated to..so that means that if you use a test kit and a digital they can and most likely will be different readings as the digital will be temp compensated and the value showen would be the PH of your water at a spicific tempature where the test kit would show the PH at the tempature of your sample.
clear as mud?
