I don't think we've got a concensus yet, though I think that will happen, Doug. Several questions and suggestions were offered, to which I responded. I don't know if they agree with me, as I haven't heard anything more! <grin> > Also, I called Hanna back this morning and talked with their > technical "specialist" about what I was trying to do and the > functionality of the TDS-1 vs the DIST-1 and he absolutely asserts > that the DIST-1 has a LOWER margin of error than the TDS-1 for a > sample of a given concentration and it is definitely the preferred > device for testing lower concentration samples. What is the price for the DIST-1? Do you have the URL of the page where they show it on their site? I wouldn't be surprised if it was more accurate. If the price is reasonable I'd consider one myself. The good news is the TDS-1 is repeatable enough that, once calibrated, you'll be able to get reproduceable results from batch to batch. That's it's basic purpose, and I think it's good enough. If a better instrument is available, then some may want to consider it. I need to work up documentation of how to set up, test, and calibrate a TDS-1 for the (still stalled) web site. I'd like to be able to add similar material for the DIST-1 when you get familiar with it. > Another pledge for the fund today!! > > For now the fund stands as follows: ... > Total to Date $ 550.00 Way to go folks! Let's see if we can get a consensus on what to test... Be well, Mike D.
