VIVOSUN Digital pH and TDS Meter Kits, 0.01pH High Accuracy Pen Type pH Meter ± 2% Readout Accuracy 3-in-1 TDS EC Temperature Meter for Hydroponics, Pool and Aquarium, Black White, UL Certified

My husband originally purchased this set last month so we could keep a closer eye on the water quality for our plants. We are on a well, so having a consistent way to check the water quality is essential. These meters have been surprisingly accurate and very easy to read, which has taken all the guesswork out of our routine. One of my favorite features—especially as someone who isn’t a pH testing expert—is that the two meters are different colors. It sounds small, but having them color-coded makes it so much easier to grab the right one at a glance! In terms of functionality and sturdiness, the pens feel well-made and durable. The caps have a tight seal, which is important for protecting the sensitive electrodes from drying out between uses. The digital screens have great color accuracy and clarity, making the numbers pop even if the lighting in the greenhouse or kitchen isn't perfect. For the price, you get a lot of accuracy and peace of mind.

I recently picked up the **VIVOSUN Digital pH and TDS Meter Kit** and it has quickly become an essential tool in my plant care and hydroponics setup. The **0.01 pH high accuracy** pen-type meter is impressively precise and easy to calibrate. It gives consistent, reliable readings every time I test my nutrient solution or water. The TDS meter is equally solid, with a ±2% readability that helps me monitor nutrient strength accurately. Having both tools in one kit is super convenient — no need to buy them separately. The pens are lightweight, have clear digital displays, and come with everything you need to get started (including calibration buffers for the pH meter). Build quality feels good for the price. The pH probe is responsive, and both meters turn on and shut off automatically to save battery life. They’re compact enough to store neatly and travel well if needed. Since using this kit, I’ve been able to dial in my nutrient mixes much better, which has led to noticeably healthier plant growth and fewer issues with lockout or burn. It’s also great for aquarium owners, pool/spa testing, or anyone who needs precise pH and TDS measurements. If you’re looking for an affordable yet high-accuracy **digital pH and TDS meter kit**, the VIVOSUN combo delivers excellent performance and value. Easy to use and dependable — highly recommended!

I like the TDS Meter but the Ph is so slow to get to the actual ph level. I’ve had to leave it in a cup of whatever what I’m measuring and walk away for 30 mins to get a true reading that matched my master API kit.

After reading several reviews on this and other similar models I decided on this two pack PH and TDS. I recently installed a reverse osmosis under kitchen sink with a tds digital display and wanted another way to check its accuracy along with what ph the RO water was putting out. Item arrived quickly and after reading instructions I decided to give it a test. Batteries were already installed and additional batteries were included so that and they both were already calibrated so two pluses from the start. I filled a glass with reverse osmosis water and another from bathroom sink. Tds for bathroom were 107 compared to RO water of 9. This is the same reading my RO system shows so I assume its pretty accurate. Next I tested the PH. Ro water was higher than bath sink water but this units numbers jumped around a bit. Although the numbers did not display steadily i was able to get a good reading and am pleased with the results. For the price I find the two units a great bargain and much better than the water test strips I was using. After my initial tests I highly recommend these products as they appear to be accurate and easy to read.

The pH meter ended up being basically useless. I carefully followed all instructions. It took a lot of time and frustration to successfully 3-point calibrate it. After calibration it seemed to be partially accurate but it would take 2+ minutes to provide a reading. Even then, it would start about 2 points above the real reading then slowly keep drifting downwards at a rate of roughly 0.01 per 1-2 seconds. It would never “land” at a reading. After a week of use I gave up on it and just went back to using chemical pH tests because those only take a fraction of the time to get a ballpark reading. The TDS meter was a little better. As I said before I followed all instructions carefully regarding usage and proper storage. For the first month of regular usage (used 1-3 times per week) it worked great and exactly as expected. Then the temperature readings became unreliable. I have other digital thermometers to compare it to and this device was consistently off by about 5-10 degrees fahrenheit which made it useless at that point. The TDS portion of the blue meter seemed to be accurate and mostly worked until the end of the 2nd month. Then it would randomly behave strange. I would test the same sample of water 3+ times over 10 minutes and the ppm reading would fluctuate by 10-40 ppm. Or sometimes I would test two samples of water from my fish tank taken about 24 hours apart. It would read out exactly the same as if the meter was “frozen”. I know that isn’t accurate as the 2nd sample would be taken 24 hours later after a fish feeding and a plant fertilizer dosing. So it’s highly unlikely that it would give an identical reading for the 2nd sample.

pH Pen did not calibrate as sensitively as stated but is close enough to get a vague idea of the pH. Works ok.

Excellent , helps me keep the Total Dissolved Solids checked in my Neocaradina shrimp aquarium

Vivosun Digital pH and TDS Meter receive a 5-star rating because of the customer service, and the products. The pH meter was not working when we received it. I contacted Vivosun and they offered a refund or replacement. I went with the replacement and received a new pH meter the next day. Both meters are working, now I just need to adjust the pH in the water I am giving my herbs so we can all be happy.

Really useful, I think the price is spot on and they have helped remove some of the guess work when it comes to pH and ppm

Great product

I bought this set mainly to check the conductivity of my LC coolant in my Ioniq 5. The items arrived quickly and safely in a solid box. It came with full instructions and even an extra set of batteries. I checked the TDS meter using tap water and got an expected reading of 56 (pure distilled water would be closer to 0) us/cm. I am very pleased with the performance and the value. Highly recommended!

TDS meter are working fine but for the PH meter I personally don’t arrive to fully calibrate it as all the time I do the PH 7 then PH 4 and when it’s arrive to do PH 9 it’s return to PH 7 so impossible to complete the calibration.

Ich hab den PH-Tester bisher nicht benutzt, kann also nix dazu sagen, ob er funktioniert oder nicht. Den zweiten Tester nutze ich fleißig um die Qualität meines Wassers zu prüfen. Ob die Werte nun 100%ig genau sind oder nicht, kann ich nicht prüfen. Mir reicht es für meine Zwecke zu wissen in welchen Bereich ich mich befinde. Ich brauche keine absolut genauen Werte. Ich für meinen Teil bin zufrieden und bin gespannt wie lange die zwei Tester funktionieren.
