This one's a long shot but haven't seen it discussed:
Has anyone tried using Pentair R161596 regent instead of Taylor R-0013 in their CYA tests, specifically with the TF-100 test kit? I'm running low on Taylor R-0013 and the Pentair reagent is 1/6th the cost up in here Canada (due to the Taylor exclusivity agreements with Lowry & Associates). My gut says there's no guarantee that it reacts the same but without testing it I can't confirm. Anyone tried?
Thanks!
