    Default Conflicting test results...........

    I tested my water today and the Taylor K-2006 gave me a reading of 6.2 for FC free chlorine.
    I have an old cheapie 5 bottle test kit and also a new 5 bottle kit that i use on a regular basis.
    The old kit gives me a reading of about 4 and no way a 5 reading which is their max reading.
    the new kit gives me the same results, barely a 4, and no way a 5.
    So I'm not believing the K-2006 kit. The 2 scoops of powder I use level scoops, and I tried that test a few times and got the same 31 to 32 drops which x .2 gives me the 6.2
