Title: TDS Meter
Post by: JandS on November 14, 2017, 09:39:23 pm: When the batteries go on them do they just die or start giving erratic readings.
Reading from first Di was around 15 last week before hitting second Di, today it was 4....after second Di with week old resin it was 1/2.

how do you calibrate a tds meter? and where do you buy calibration fluid from?

i just usually buy another one if changing batteries doesnt fix it.their cheap enough.

I recently changed batteries in an inline one because the LCD display was very weak and you had to look at it at a certain angle to read it ...... it did however show the true reading when compared to my handheld one.
