PH Monitors - Electronic

[caad3]

Any feedback or opinions on constant PH monitors (Milwalkee and Pinpoint etc.). I'm getting tired of trying to read the color of my traditional test kit and the prices have come down to the working man price.

thanks, James

I had a pinpoint for a long time. I liked it, but I never actually checked it unless something was wrong.

I have a Pinpoint. Never had any problems with it.
Interesting to see the differences in PH when a window gets opened and day to night changes.

I love them but ph probes have a lifespan of only 6 months give or take.

PH Probes

Wow, probes only last about six months? They are half the price of the whole unit. Going to have to rethink this. Thanks everyone for responding.

Are you serious? Is everyone replacing their probes every 6 months??

I take that back:
http://www.americanmarineusa.com/phmonitor.html
As for the pintpoint ph probe: "[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]the useful life of a PINPOINT pH Probe is approximately 18 months of continuous duty."
Marine Depot states: "Most probes can be used for 12-18 months in continuous duty"

Maybe I was just using a crappy probe
