Hi richiev,I stopped using this for awhile because I messed up my device and didn't have time to set everything up again (sump + electronics dunking incident).
Before I went on a 1 month vacation I set everything up again, and shockingly it's working fantastic. I need to retest myself, but the numbers I was getting while I was gone were very close to the numbers my neighbor pulled with my Hanna 2 or 3 times while I was away (I'm very lucky to have a helpful neighbor). I'm going to finally setup a second one of these on my main display.
It's now very easy to build one. I know where to order all the parts, and the setup is straightforward if you know how to crimp wires. pH probe calibration is the most annoying part, but I think I overly complicate that by trying to be too precise. It's mostly automated now, I just need to tune it some.
Also I realized right before I left that with this equipment I can also create a fully automated water change system. I'm probably going to set that up next. Same exact components, but I'll have the drain go to a bucket, the fill pull from a saltwater reservoir, and have one head leftover I can use for dosing.
I recently came across the post while searching for what’s been done in terms of DIY alkalinity titration testers. Out of curiosity, have you done any more work on yours and do you plan on updating your repo? I would love to build one of these myself. It seems super impressive.
