Currently it appears my salt generator is reflecting a lower salt reading than the salt test strips I have on hand; approx. 500-800ppm lower. Is this common and typically which would prove more reliable?
Definitely go with the strip. The cell only infers the salt level based on conductivity of the water and, as Jason said, that changes with temp, and it can also be affected by scale deposits on the cell itself.
