Sorely tempted to order one for £33 delivered (excluding import taxes!) But how accurate can it be with a margin of 0.04 effectively meaning it can only measure down to 0.04ppm. I know eveything is subject to some margin of error including the human eye when using the d&d kits. Which is likely to be the most accurate allowing for error margins?

I think the other hanna tester has the same tolerance.Is that correct Quigs? Maybe we can get hold of a reference solution and that would sort any inaccuracies out?

Anybody know if it's available in the UK yet? Tho I don't expect it to be anywhere near that price point!

I've ordered one of these today from the states with an extra 25 reagents for £43 delivered plus import taxes.
Will let you know how it performs
