Whether it’s your brew, fish tank, or hydroponics setup – it tells you if your water’s clean, warm, or just plain dodgy. Simple, quick, no fuss.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIdeal for anyone after a cheap and cheerful way to measure TDS or EC in water, whether for plants or peace of mind. Just note: this is a budget tool – it doesn't have a calibration function, so if you need precise, reliable EC readings for sensitive setups, you’ll want to use a more accurate EC meter instead.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHard Facts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasures TDS (Total Dissolved Solids), temperature \u0026amp; conductivity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReadings from 0–4999 ppm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBig backlit screen (green = good, red = not so good)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy one-button operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuto-off after 2 mins (saves battery)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks in drinking water, aquariums, hydroponics \u0026amp; pools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eATC (Automatic Temperature Compensation) built in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery included (cheers for that)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstructions (For the 1% who read them)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTurn it on\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eStick it in the water\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eStir a bit\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eWait for the numbers to stop jumping\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJob done – read your result\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen backlight = TDS under 40 = safe to drink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed = over 40 = maybe not the best idea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Mansplained\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis Hofun water tester’s a dead-handy bit of kit. It tells you three things – how many bits are floating in your water (TDS), how warm it is, and how well it conducts electricity (conductivity, if you're into that sort of thing). It’s all on a backlit screen – green if it’s safe, red if you should probably think twice. Works straight out of the box and even turns itself off if you forget. Whether you're checking tap water or keeping your plants and fish happy, this does the trick without the waffle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eModel: E-2\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize: 16.26 x 2.9 x 1.57 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 28.3g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRange: 0–4999 ppm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDisplay: LCD, backlit (green\/red)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterial: Plastic\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBattery: 1 x CR2 Lithium (included)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShuts off: After 2 mins idle\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExtras: ATC, auto-lock reading\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hofun","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":52121665569115,"sku":"0106","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LIKE-NEW","offer_id":52121665601883,"sku":"0106-LN","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0950\/2896\/9819\/files\/WaterTester_TDS_Temp_Conductivity-0.jpg?v=1754525657","url":"https:\/\/manthings.uk\/products\/4-in-1-water-tester-tds-temp-conductivity","provider":"ManThings UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
