I think that the problem is in the model (you can check at the Hanna home
page: www.hannainst.com ). The TDS1  (now discontinued) has a "resolution"
of 10ppm. The new model is the DIST-WP1 that has a resolution of 1 ppm.
In the Hanna home page you can find also a list of the distributors outside
USA. The price of the DIST-WP1 is $46.70 (in USA).
Hope this help
