Hiya guys, I'm trying to find a liquid Baquacil testing kit. A littl peeved at the test strips seeing we switched over to Baquacil about 2-3 weeks ago, and the test strips they gave us expired back in March, and never gave me the right LVLs. Got a refund, but they didn't have any that were still in date.

Baquacil Test Strip
Baquacil ~ Between 30-40 ppm
Total Alk ~ Around 100 ppm
pH Level ~ Little lighter for 7.2

Liquid pH and Chlorine Test
pH Level ~ 7.8
Chlorine/Bromine (had to see what would happen >.<) ~ 4 ppm, little surprised

Rec Warehouse Digital Test
Baquacil ~ 27 ppm
Chlorine ~ N/A (should of asked about that)
pH Level ~ 7.9
Total Alk ~ 70
Total Hardness ~ 60

I asked them about a liquid Baquacil test, and they didn't have nor ever heard of one. So anyone out here know of anything?

Taylor Technoligies has drop based kits for biguinide (generic name for Baqucil, SoftSwim, Revacil, etc). and also one for biguinide/peroxide (very expensive). The kit numbers are K-1444 and K-1725. You will also need a Taylor K-2005 or equvalent to test your other water parameters such as pH, total alkalinity, and calium hardness.
