Dodgy Tds meters?
« on: October 14, 2015, 07:04:41 am »
One of my meters has packed up - the other is eight years old and still working well. I seem to remember some time ago there were some duff Chinese copies about. How can you tell the genuine HM meter?

Buy a new one from Gardiners or Daqua. They are genuine

 ;D that's where it came from. Just feels cheap and tacky compared to my old one. I'm not saying it was a copy - just don't want to buy a duff one in future. There's over 1000 on Ebay!
