I agree, the instructions suck....

The MG one, when they changed it wasn't fun, I wasted a bunch of regeant until I finally figured it out, very easy now, but I wasted quite a bit of the kit.

They are very accurate though, but pricey... If anyone can recommend a kit that is easy to use but accurate please let all of us know. There are lots and I have never switched, but will always take the recommendations of others, especially if the kits are cheaper.

Me too. I switched back to Salifert.

I hear Salifert is good, is it as good or better than ELOS? I might have to look into that.

I found Salifert to be the same, results wise, but less complicated. So, overall...better.

Hi. I just bought this kit from J L and it says to use 5ml and one drop =
0.5ppm
So what your saying is that i can just put in 2.5 ml of water and one drop will then = 1ppm? That is good to know,
