Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the TDS-3 water quality test pen actually measure?
A: The TDS-3 measures Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) in water, expressed in parts per million (ppm). A lower TDS reading generally indicates purer water. It can measure across a wide range of 0–9,990 ppm with a resolution of 1 ppm and ±2% readout accuracy, making it suitable for drinking water, aquariums, pools, and hydroponics.
Q: Do batteries come included with the TDS water tester pens?
A: No, batteries are not included. Each TDS-3 pen requires 2 × 1.5V LR44 button-cell batteries, which are widely available at most electronics or grocery stores.
Q: Can I use these TDS pens to test my water filter's effectiveness?
A: Absolutely! Simply test your water before and after it passes through your filter (reverse osmosis, carbon filter, Brita, refrigerator filter, etc.). A noticeable drop in TDS reading indicates your filter is working effectively at reducing dissolved solids.
Q: Why buy a 2-pack of TDS test pens?
A: The 2-pack offers excellent value — keep one in the kitchen and one near your aquarium or garden setup, or share with a family member. Having a backup also ensures you're never without a tester if one needs a battery replacement.
