Have a quick question for you. I hope that the answer doesn't take up a lot of your time. :)
Can you actually measure the pH of RO/DI water using the Pinpoint meter?
To me by DeIonizing the water you are making it very difficult for the meter to actually determine what the pH is. I am trying to get this all straight in my head.
I don't know for sure how the pinpoint measures my water but I have it in my head that a measurement involves measuring Ions in the water(or somethig like that) Am I out to lunch?..
I wish I knew all the proper terminology but I am a techie. ;) :D The chemistry stuff slips past me some days..
Basically can you get an accurate measurement of pH with the meter I am using? If there is a link where I can learn about this I'd be happy with that, so I can sit and study it if you can't point me in the right direction without taking up too much of your time. I have tried searching for an answer but keep finding similar questions but am still kinda foggy on the whole thing.
Thank you very much.
