Not better than other rods tests

I'm now running for several years hunting. Measurements are made only sporadically with me because my 6 pools are stable and large measurements were not necessary yet. Nevertheless, one should indeed necessary also times can measure one or the other value. Due to the very positive fact recessions I bought this test if I am also been skeptical.

I already use a long time the spot test of JBL. Well, that this test would not nearly reach this result, I had already thought. I have therefore made a direct comparison of a measurement and the following values ​​have come out:

JBL Pro Scan Test:
Nitrate (NO3): 0 mg / l
Nitrite (NO2): 0 mg / l
Total hardness (GH): carbonate hardness (KH): 1.5 ° d
pH: Chlorine: 0
CO2: 35 mg

JBL droplet test:
Nitrate (NO3): 10 mg / l
Nitrite (NO2): 0
Total hardness (GH): 3 ° d
Carbonate hardness (KH): 1.5 ° d
pH: 6.1
Chlorine: 0
CO2: 12 mg

The measurements were carried out exactly according to instructions, with white pad (paper) at the window, no shadow and sunlight. All other issues were considered in the measurement. Nevertheless, there will be deviations. I am a little surprised, as other buyers of precise droplet test results can talk. Values ​​are definitely a good guideline, whereby Co2 always like fluctuates during the measurements (calculating KH / pH).

But why such a bad review of one or the other person will ask. Values ​​are yes extent in "order"?

Now in addition to the not quite precise details of the test, I find it a pity that JBL once sold this product as expensive. I have found that the JBL Test Strips 6in1, which can also be purchased at Amazon __exakt__, the same values ​​as the supply JBL Pro Scan test strips.

There is a big difference but that per scan test strips have Nachfüller only 24 test strips. The JBL Easy Test 6in1 Test Strips other hand, have 50 test strips and are also close to 10% cheaper!

Now I wonder as a customer, why has your JBL Pro Scan System test strips, which are much more expensive than the JBL 6in1 test strips and also still a lot less of this. I put every buyer to heart, to buy the JBL Easy Test 6in1 Test Strips! My picture which I have appended this Rezzesion, this show again significantly. Links JBL Pro Scan test strip and the right of Easy Test 6in1 Test Strips.

Well, because it makes it appear as if the manufacturers jump on the app craze and its Pro Scan test strip sell high, because there are so many smartphone junkies. I find a little bit cheeky. JBL should consider zuzulegen the Pro Scan also 50 test strips, which is priced no different from the Easy Test 6in1 strips really.

Conclusion:
The Ansich system is not at all times so wrong. The Qualiät corresponds to normal chopsticks tests and provide a good guideline for the water values ​​to unpack without equal to 20 droplets tests.

JBL can, however, pay the smartphone craze quite good and the standalone gehörenen JBL Pro Scan test strips are far too expensive. With the Easy Test 6in1 Test Strips has 36 test strips for more money and even spaart NEN fives. It can be achieved same Testergbnisse.

Co2 is not a separate test Ansich but is calculated from KH and pH. FE (iron) would do the test also quite good, any copper for shrimpkeeper.

Finally, if you like art, this set can pick up and it is also very convenient, but all this test can, can also use the Easy Test 6in1 Test Strips. In this you have to stop even read the values ​​and the smartphone is not a erspaart this one work step. New future, this test is certainly not, but a nice gimmick.

I hope one or the other can do something with this evaluation.
