You can also do a dilution to make your kit read higher than 5. It isn't super accurate but better than nothing. It is also not meant as a permanent way to test high chlorine levels. But, it may help you out for now.

Just to add a comment--it's normal to get falsely high pH readings when your chlorine is that high, so don't worry about it for now if you know that it's over 7.0.
Re: Opening pool early and poss leak
Ok. Just tested now. Nothing put in since about 11.
TC - orange (like the skin of a real ripe orange)
pH - around 7.8 I think
TA - is it sposed to stay pink? Put in 20 drops and saw color change but if I swirled it didn't stay pink
CYA - out of Reagant and Wally only had red/yellow Reagant repl
