  1. Not as thorough as the k2006, but it would’ve been good enough! Unfortunately, I already bought it and it can’t be returned, so now I have to figure out a way to get it here.
  2. No, they don’t have anything like it, I wish they did!
  3. They are all so damn expensive now, I am not sure it’s going to be worth it. But now that I have it, they say I can’t return it, so I am going to have to try to do something with it. My brother will take it to the Post Office and get a quote. My other option is that I have a friend coming over soon, but I’ve read that the TSA can confiscate just about any thing for any reason!
  4. How did you ship it, UPS, Fedex, DHL, USPS? Did you have to pay customs when you picked it up?
  5. Has anyone shipped a pool water test kit to Thailand, a Taylor K2006 in my case? I am buying it on Amazon and having it shipped to a friend who will ship it here. Worried about it getting here and customs!
  6. I was once the third car behind a bus going down a steep mountain in Kanchanaburi. He was going so slow, correctly, that I dropped back and lost sight of him around some curves. Then, rounding a curve I noticed the overhead wires shaking, but I didn’t know why. Then ahead I could see something on a curve that looked out of place. Once I got closer I realized it was the bottom of the bus. Just like in the photo, he lost it on a curve and the top of the bus was shaved off. As I approached the bus with a few other people, it was completely quiet. I asked one of them in Thai if there was anyone on the bus, they said it was full. Gradually muffled noises turned into groans, then screams. It was like a zombie apocalypse, helping bloody people escape the wreckage until the EMT’s came. I left and later learned that nine people had died.
  7. Annihilated by Trump in a debate? You actually call what he does debating? Does he ever give a cogent answer to any question he is asked? Most of the time he doesn’t even understand the question and his answer always has something to do with how great he is!
  8. Yes, thanks, I’m looking into that. Do you know the best way to test for it? My digital tester does not, so I“m assuming strips?
  9. Ok thanks, it does sound possible then. I think what I’ll do is dump some Sunblock in, cyanuric acid, and see what happens. I’ll shock it as a last resort.
  10. Thanks! My chlorinator is in summer mode and at 100%. What are you using to measure your cyanuric acid? If test strips, which ones?
  11. I’m glad you brought up oxygen, that’s why I mentioned the large overflow. Could the water be getting over-oxygenated and lowering the efficiency of the chlorine?
  12. Thanks, the pH has never gotten that high, usually high 7- low 8. How do I raise the free chlorine level without increasing the Total Chlorine level?
  13. Thanks, as I said, I have added muratic acid and the ph went down for a few hours but then returned to 7.9-8.1. I will look into the algaecide!
  14. No, I didn’t, I assumed it came calibrated. I did test it in a high concentration of chlorine and the free chlorine at least registered. In my water it only shows dashed lines or zeros. I will look into calibrating it, thanks for the suggestion.
  15. My saltwater pool water is clear and there does not seem to be any problem with it. However, the drop test shows high ph and total chlorine. The digital test shows high ph and 0 free chlorine. When I add muratic acid the ph drops for a few hours, then returns. I have a 4m overflow, so I am wondering if that might be the cause? The internet says to shock it to free up some chlorine. Does that make sense to anyone? IMG_5446.mov
