if your lucky...possibly on ebay you can find a bluelab truncheon. I saw alot of people recommended it so I purchased one myself. It was $100 brand new but it works like a charm so far.
I hear some recommend Hanna measuring pens.

Budget=no good or wont last long, you get what you pay for. Until ebay came along and then its a different kettle of fish. I got a truncheon for £25 brand new which is roughly $50. You could probably get it shipped over for less than a new one over there. Definitely look on ebay.

Another vote for the Truncheon here. Mine is 7 years old and still works a treat.

yeek!
Hannas are not my idea of top shelf stuff. I killed a few before trying Eutech pH meters, which I've had for many years, with periodic probe replacements of course.
Too right. I am not a fan of integrated pH/nute meters for this exact reason.
pH meters should have a user-replaceable probe. The probes only last about 2 years once you wet them- and they must be kept damp in between uses. Waterproof housings with rubber o-ring seals are a must.

Well thanks for the info. I was about to get this Hannah for $95. This is at a shop nearby. Most of the others there are combos too. Then they have one thats a tds meter only but $40 (cheap/easy to break). I guess Im still in shopping mode.
