Set it once with RO then it's good to go. Easy as it gets.

Actually, the manual says you should calibrate with RO before every use

Im not to crazy electronic meters .so I decided to go with the vital sine refractometer from what I read this seams to be the most accurate ..the milwaukee was def tempting though .I just figured less could go wrong with the vital sine

Thanks mike .the vital sine and see vee are both the same refractometer ..I think see vee makes them for vital sine or its the other way around ..
