AquaChek TruTest Test Strips (100 Count) (1)

These test strains work so well with the little mini computer. I was out and had to buy some 5-in-1 test strips at Leslie’s. They are terrible and way overpriced. I now bought two of the 100 pack test strips for the mini computer and the price was good (on sale). The mini computer takes the guess work out of it. You just turn it on, push the bottom bottom, it tells you when to dip, shake off excess water, place the strip on the glass without sliding across, wait a minute and voila- you got your Values for Chlorine, ph and Alk. I will keep purchasing those for sure.

These are great if they have them in stock

Fast delivery, needing these strips after running low. Work perfectly with tester.

great product

These strips are an easy way to keep track of the chemicals in our hot tub. It’s like test strips for dummies!

Helps with pool

Very easy to use and the best way to check the levels in the hotub.

I purchased these test strips because they're a hundred count bottle of test strips. I like to dip the strips down into the spa water, up to the middle of the forearm. I swirl the strips around in the water for a couple of seconds and when I pull the strip out of the water hit the test button, flick my arm and strip a couple of times and quickly place the test strip into the reader. I keep a cotton tip swab at the ready to pre-clean the colorimeter glass before dipping the test strip in the spa. I place the test strip in the reader slot and hold the test strip in place with the cotton swab laying the length of the test strip. I take three readings so I can get a trend line for the spa water chemistry. Overall, when tests are done in this fashion, you'll need a boatload of test strips and the more you test your water, the more you'll need this product for the convenience having so many strips provides. Also, buying large numbers of test strips like this, if you have to pay for postage you'll save by having to make less purchases. This is a good thing. Hope the above helps.

The idea is simple enough but readings can vary wildly between two sticks (the two readings are taken close together to confirm a suspiciously high - or low - reading. Follow the instructions carefully - do not slide the stick into the slot - and read out of strong sunlight or use the light shield. Problems seem to be caused by a patchy colour density on the strips, the reading depending on the precise area the meter reads. When the readings have appeared inherently unlikely, I have gone back to the old methods which depend on the use of the human eye, and these have invariably proved the more believable. This is a pity. It is much faster than tablets and colour charts and potentially more accurate than test tapes using the eye and colour comparisons, which are as fast but less accurate than the tablets. I suspect the active reagents/indicator are not always distributed as evenly as they should be over the test area, which I would guess is a matter of quality control. Given the cost of the meter and bottles of strips, I would have expected better quality. You also have to watch the expiry date of the strips, which might be quite short if they have been at the retailers for some time.

Wie jedes Jahr wieder bin ich absolut zufrieden mit dem Produkt

Conforme aux besoin de mon appareil de lecture automatique.

Trutest is an excellent product, that makes managing pool chemistry easy. Gives an actual number instead of leaving you guessing as to the colour. Unfortunately and inexplicably Aquachek has stop production. Amazon please help! You can use your volume purchasing to influence this company to keep this great product

Excellent produit avec l'appareil de test plus aucun problème de qualité de l'eau
