Does anyone know of a good [acronym:9c05bc4318="power head or Measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions, depending on context"]ph[/acronym:9c05bc4318] tester for higher range [acronym:9c05bc4318="power head or Measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions, depending on context"]ph[/acronym:9c05bc4318] that won't cost me 90 bucks? My liquid tests only go to 7.8

and my dip stick tests only go to 8.4. [acronym:9c05bc4318="Thanks in Advance"]TIA[/acronym:9c05bc4318]

I have an Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Master Test Kit that includes a high range pH test that goes to 8.8. The Master kit was 20 dollars, but I think they sell all their little tests individually for around 7 or 8 dollars each.
