i bought that model and would not recommend it. the light scale is useless as it maxes out and the ph scale is too small to be accurate. the same manufacturer makes separate ph and soil moisture meters that are imo easier to use. none of these are super accurate but great for their price.

i have that meter and different soil and water ph testers. just for sh its and giggles , i check that meter against and its always right there where the test kits are. PH is close, so is moisture, im not sure about the light, but yes my 1000w max's it easy but my T-5's show where the should be.

I have that, it has a "HOLD ALL" sticker on it and looks exactly the same. It seems to PH distilled water correctly at neutral but ive been told that they are inaccurate. So much fucking info out there you gotta double check, so I also have a liquid test. I say get one of those liquid test kits and test it against the meter every once in awhile. Thats what ill be doing.

i think this model is inaccurate. using distilled water u can get more accurate data.
it is good just to dont let ur plant die by pH or something like

I'm soil growing and don't need an exact PH, but I'm pretty sure my soil is ridiculously acidic, and I want to make sure.
