I hate this OTO test, is Ben's better?

I'm afraid my eyes aren't cut out for this, can you easily pinpoint the ppm?

It is much easier with the DPD powder test in Ben's kit. The color change is obvious for most people.

The OTO test is hard to match the color as I find the shades get pretty subtle above 2. Ben's test kit has the OTO test but also has an FAS-DPD test which is the test Janet talks about. That one is much easier to be accurate with as you add drops of a reagent until the color of the solution changes so it is easy to nail down an exact measurement.

Ben sells the FAS-DPD test as a separate item on the poolsulutions page if you don't want the buy the whole kit.

Thanks all, can't wait to get the kit. It's our first month with our first pool and it sounds like the end all and be all.
