Hi Ken, Where do you get the notion that PWT meters can be off as much as 60% when they measure ionic CS? Most ionic CS is in the range of 80 to 90% ionic? They accurately measure the ionic portion or do you disagree they do NOT measure ionic CS accurately? Ours certainly do and as I said earlier, we use three of them to see if there is any difference in readings. There isn't........
