I'm trying to determine which type of PH/EC/PPM/Temp meter to buy, and I was kinda hoping some people with some experience with both could give me some advice.

I don't spend too much time in my grow room, so I don't think I need a continuous meter. I don't want to clean the meter too often either; does anyone know which one needs less maintanence?

I've looked for other threads on this forum about this topic, but none exist. Any help is much appreciated!

Should I get the Portable meter or the Continuous meter?

Whichever is cheapest. Since it's so easy, don't think of maintenance as an issue.

I'm going to hafta put in a vote for the portable meters for a smaller setup. If you run a continuous meter with an HPS digital ballast nearby, the rf interference realllly throws off your ph readings while its running. My Trimeter is only useful during the night cycle, but aside from that I love it. Can i get a fuck litmus?
