Has anyone had any negative or positive experiences with the AquaChek TruTest Digital Test Strip Reader?  I think this was released a few months ago.

Doc just got them a few weeks ago.  He was going to have a few people test them out, but I haven't seen any reports yet.

No one took me up on my offer  :-/
If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

I did, kind of!  I just didn't want to commit to buying one until I found out if they are any good.;) As I told you in my PM, I'd be happy to try it out, compare it to my Taylor kit results and report back.  Let me know if you are interested.

I must have missed that.

After about a year's experement, I did take the magnets out when my pump was replaced. The tech kind of rolled his eyes when he saw it.

Was it door #1, or what's inside the box?

Welllllllllllllllllllllll, ok, lets go this route. Due to some technical dificulties, or shall we say medical problems (not mine, thank you very much), I kinda lost all track of this. So, lets start over :-)

The thing in normally $60 and comes with 25 test strips. For $40 I'll also throw in shipping and an additional bottle of 50 test strips.

PM me if'n ya want.
