Hi members,anyone know what the average life of a TDS meter
Battery is thanks.

Readings I feel might be inaccurate

Mines buggered too.
Display is only showing some of the digits, changed batteries but buggered.
Contacted manufacturer who said out of warranty buy a new one.

We do offer a Control with an added TDS probe as its a single probe, we suggest that the probe is placed after the pump so you can check Purity before the pole.
At the moment we are not able to offer it as a retro fit option.
