Jeremy, pH meters go out of calibration extremely fast and without proper calibration with trusted calibration fluid you can be off in the order of magnitude range. Until you get fluids, I would recommend using paper strips as they are more reliable than an uncalibrated pH meter. I am fairly

Hello Jeremy. Some pH meters have microprocesor with values for calibration with 3 specific buffer solution of a given pH value stored in their memory. I remember some 10 years ago, I used a german Hanna pH meters have this feature and if I was trying to use standar buffer solution of 4.00 ;
