You can see the colour gradation is much more pronounced then stripes, making it easier to get an accurate reading. It measures the three major indicators: bromine, ph and alkalinity. I wish it also did hardness but that rarely changes. I still use stripes for that. The best before dates of each bottle is still a year out and there is enough that I don’t have to worry about how often I test. I’m close to the end of the season and only used about a quarter of the most used bottle.
Hopefully, I’ll be able to replenish the bottles when needed but if I had to buy the whole deal again, I wouldn’t hesitate.
Pricier than strips short term but lasts longer and hoping to save money on chemicals and fewer water changes with this kit.
