    Yes I did multiply by 0.5...

    I think my reading may be incorrect because i have a defective DPD #2 dropper bottle. It's unlike any other one in the kit and I can't get a controlled drop. The drops are much smaller (1/2-1/3 the size of other bottles in the kit) and come in rapid succession. I'm not sure what to do at this point. Do I have a defective bottle?

    I recieved my kit today and noticed the exact same thing with that dropper. It's very hard and the little drops come out very fast.

    I had the same problem with the tip in my dropper. I spoke to Ben and he sent me another tip. The new tip took care of the problem. It works fine now.

    Default So this IS a problem... I can't trust the PS234 results until I get a replacement?

    How do I do that (I don't have a phone) #)? eMail (he seems quite busy now filling test kit orders).

    I had the same problem and after consulting with Ben it turned out the tip was dirty. I took a tissue and cleaned the tip and it has worked fine since. I'm not implying that this will work for everyone but it's worth a try.

    I sent Ben a PM. While I'm waiting for him to respond, I'll try what you suggest. I hope he's paying attention to this thread because it seems that several folks have had this issue.
