Those of you that have pH meters, like the Apera Ph20.

Do you like them? Do they hold accuracy? How often do you have to re-calibrate it?

I've been debating about buying one because I know I'm gonna need it for my hydroponics stuff here soon. I'm doing it with ph drops right now and its a real pain in the ass.

I have been a fan of my Milwaukee Instruments pH600AQ :


It's ~$25-ish and you can get it direct or off Amazon. You will need to budget for both storage solution and calibration fluids.

I like that it splits the difference between the very expensive units and the cheap Chinese $10 crapshoot. It requires a little break in time, calibration once a week until it settles down. Then I usually recalibrate once a month. It holds very well and I do recommend getting both the 4.0 and 7.0 calibration fluids. It is only a 0.X not 0.XX if that makes a difference to you.

I like the Apera 3M KCl storage fluid: $15 on Amazon - you only need to put 8-10 drops in the cap.

Amazon product

I also recommend the BioPharm calibration fluids as they are NIST certified to be accurate: ~$25 or so on Amazon

Amazon product



So $25 for pH pen, $15 storage solution, $25 calibration fluids : $65-70 for everything. Mine lasted 2 years before I could not 2-point calibrate it any longer.
