Dude, you can cheap out on a lotta things, but a pH meter aint one of them.
Knowing the pH ACCURATELY is a vital factor here, and relying on a cheap one doesn't really make sense. You wouldn't "price shop" for a heart surgeon would you? There is generally a reason why some things are more expensive than others. Reliability and accuracy are worth more money. I know my girls (and my end product) certainly are.
