Some topics for our next meeting??

Just throwin it out there. Been talking to a few members. Just want to see what you guys think. I will bring my [acronym:92b8206962="Total Dissolved Solids"]TDS[/acronym:92b8206962] meter to test your RODI water or your tap water. IT will tell u if you need new filters or a RODI filter period.

Thought about bringing my refractometer as well. If I do that, you can bring your Hydrometers, and it will show you how much they differ from one another. Will at least let you know how much it is off.

I personally would love to have a RODI lesson. Some of you have QUITE a bit of knowledge out there!!! Dont be afraid to let some of us know!

Both are great ideas. With the [acronym:3dc7db6940="Total Dissolved Solids"]TDS[/acronym:3dc7db6940] though its important to use as sterile container as possible to transport the water so as to get as accurate a reading as possible and not contaminate the water with dirt from the container.
