can you fill the Chlorine bottle to 5 mil rather then 10

[Makdaddy]

So Im slamming
I have high CYA 80 (SWG)
I thought I read somewhere when its high Chlorine levels you can read at 5mil and double it, saving form using 10mil and more drops

Or am I just going to eat up all of my chlorine test kit

Hmmmm... interesting idea. I don't know the answer but it would be interesting and useful if you tried it at the same time and see how the results look?

Im thinking about trying it tonight
My slam level is 31 with the high CYA right now
Ill post when I get it checked
I swear I read somewhere that this will work

the accuracy goes down, I think is the issue, so if you're going to do that, set your target FC a bit higher to compensate for testing error.

Yes, a 5ml sample will result in a reading equal to 1ppm per drop. In the middle of a SLAM this is fine, but make sure when you perform the OCLT that you use the 10 ml sample for both the before and after readings.

Cool
I will see what happens tonight when I get home

I just checked the TFT site and R-0871 (2 0z) FAS/DPD Reagent is only $10 or so
I may just order extra if I get too low
Hope this slam dosent take too long
