Hey everyone,
Was wanting to get a new phone meter and I was torn between two brands.
Bluelab and AC infinity.
I know bluelab is like the best you can get but if I could save like half the price and get one with a detachable/replacable tip that works just as well, or nearly as good, I would like to.
But not at the cost of false readings. So what do you guys think? What would the pros vs cons be for AC VS BL?
As always, thanks everyone for your input. Always appreciated!
I would put Apera meters on your list for consideration as well. ACI, Bluelab, and Apera are all fine and are all pretty much all the same. I use an Apera PC60 which measures both pH and PPM and it works great.
I will check it out once I get home and let you know what I think! Thanks for the suggestion.
LOL thanks for starting this thread because I was on the verge of it myself.
I’ve been using this Amazon cheapy for a while now and feel like I’ve been getting lucky for too long and it’s time to upgrade
Literally same situation I’m in growmie. Ive noticed a slight change in what it reads my water at so I wanna be safe rather than sorry only a few weeks from harvest.
And no problem man. Lol. Firm believer in everything happens for a reason, and when it’s suppose to.
Ended up going with apera. It just felt right to me. If not I’ll learn a lesson. Lol
90% of the stuff I own is AC Infinity already so I’m probably going to go that route. From what I can tell that is a great name brand( apera) to have around here though 
so I’m kind of still torn not going to lie 
That’s how I felt. Lol. I know BL is great but everything else but my lights is ACI (ATM). So I wasn’t sure if I should just keep going the route I’m on or have a variety pack of gear. I went with Apera because I checked it out and it felt right. I’m a very instincts/gut feeling type person. Hasn’t lead me wrong since I’ve been going by it so 
I should have grabbed this one instead of the pH20. Hint hint…
I’ll take that as I made a wise purchase. Lol.
I’ll let you know how the ACI works. I got that one since it was “a little” cheaper. But I’ll test them both out and see what’s up and let you know how the ACI works out my guy.
Had to buy another oscillating fan anyways so I figured why not. 2 for a 10x5 does not cut it.
I have the apera PC60 . It’s an insurance policy. Every time I use it lets me know I’m following guidance.
That’s smart honestly
It’s feed day. Gave the girls jacks and measured runoff for the first time in five days and I am a bit low on PH. Going in the as 6.3 and runoff less than 6.0. Ppms around 1400
I’m sure the aci instrument will serve you right
They seem to have top knotch everything else so I’m hoping I didn’t waste any money. Lol.
