Water parameter testing equipment

[Archerfish]

I have used scientific grade testing equipment for years but now that I'm retired, I am looking for suggestions for consumer grade, fairly accurate testing equipment.

I conclude, based upon the number of views vs replies, I have my answer!

Use a liquid test kit. API is considered by many to be the best one.

I've tried weipro some other amazon monitor but the one that's been 100% for me so far was from aliexpress
ph/tds controller with temp monitor
goes for around 100 bucks with shipping and does ph/tds/temp it's app controlled and has plugs to work with solenoids (ph controllers and tds based water changing systems)
the very same one sells on amazon for more than double the price

API. Best prices on Amazon. I buy their tap water condition by the gallon.

I agree as to API liquid, not strips, for testing PH, ammonia, nitrite and nitrate levels.
