Hey all,
I just recieved my brand new Hanna HI981504 continuous meter.
I wanted to test my tap water to see what I was working with. So I filled up a glass of water and stuck all three probes in. ALL the numbers went CRAZY! The PH was all over the map, it jumped around a little when I put it in alone, like 6.5 to 7.2 and in between which I thought was way too much just by itself, but now it was going crazy. TDS was fairly steady by itself and it was also going CRAZY. Temperature wouldn't even read anything just displayed ---.
Anyone have ANY idea what the heck is going on? I paid $180 bucks for this thing and it doesn't even work! What am I doing wrong?
I tried the cleaning solution on the TDS and the PH probe and it didn't affect anything.
Any ideas would be great! I was planning on starting soon, guess I'll have to hold off til I solve this problem.
