Probably using one of those meters that also measures the water temperature  :)

You can never tell, water come from different sources. Go ten miles from here and you are in a different water authority.

Mine is 300 out of the mains
My well is 70
My ground water / uv drinking supply is 128
and the rainwater we harvest is between 11-30.

Best local water is 66 and runs out of a hill into a cattle trough.

I've had over 450 from our tap. Came out in block form so it did!    :o

Seriously though, 340 is the lowest I've seen it, down to about 20 after RO then big fat zero through the jets.
