Hi,

I use a Lamotte Smart 2 Spectrometer to measure Iodine, Bromine, Nitrate, Phosphate, Nitrite and Ammonia.

I used to measure alkalinity with it as well until I spoke with Lamotte's tech support and they advised that for Alkalinity the titration method is more accurate. I now use the Lamotte Alkalinity kit instead of my meter.

Cheers,
Tim
