Hey Taco and Welcome !!!!
Test strips have proven to be too inaccurate, or just plain vague to use for dosing. You need reliable data or the correction is 'dump and pray'.
Test Kits Compared
Your ionizer is an 'alternative sanitizer' that isn't a government approved approach. You need full amounts of chlorine, and then you can use your ionizer if you must, but if you're already sanitary, the ionizer is redundant. As is, you are not sanitary. Copper isn't a contact killer and takes too much time.
