    Speedstir Magnetic stirrer

    I got The speed stir when i ordered my test kit, it makes it so much easier! I have since ordered 3 more mag-pills and vials, like Richard320, and just have to clean everything at one time, it really speeds up water test time!

    From the looks of the threads i have been reading, old wounds are about to be opened

    Bama Rambler, I think i may need to expand a little, all if the items i listed are connected with the one continuous loop, my PB just put the two ends to a ground rod clamp on the ground rod, i would not let him cut the excess off till we got this figured out, so adding my swcg will be...

    Somewhat more comfortable with test kit, what do I need to do first...

    No, I have not had any cya in the water, I had checked it previously, today is the first time I got a result. I don't suspect algae, as the water and floor and walls look great, I was actually wanting to see if it moved any, as I am going to install a timer for my pump and swg and was going to...

    First Test with TF-100 on a new SWG Pool...Oh Lord, please don't let me muck up...

    I am back, I had to test the pool, shoot off the results, and thenow run to town and have just returned to check the responses. I think I am going to retest water a couple of more times to see that my results are repeatable, and then start making the required adjustments. The water is as clear...

    Noob question, is there a recommended order of TF-100 testing?

    Griswald, I did order the Speed Stir as well, but what is the side dispensing bottle? duraleigh, i think that relative position to the "cool ones" sound like a plan, since the wife's Tiki Bar is not built as of yet, I will never see the end of the "honey-do" list, which is one reason why i am so...
