Are you completely sure that the calibration isn't off on the SWG? I screwed with the installer menu of my autopilot and "somehow" reset the calibration to think my pool was at 3000PPM when it was really only at about 1800PPM... So of course I added a few more bags of salt and the pool pilot said I was good, but my check cell light kept on blinking away!!! I added another 300lbs (as suggested by the autopilot manual) and the light of course went away... Now my cell amps are slightly low... So I think I am still a we little low on salt... I just ordered the Aquacheck Salt testers because none of my local stores have the salt readers... Once I do a couple checks I will reset my calibration to match and hope to be insync from that point on... Sounds like it could be calibration issues betwen the poool testing equipment the readings on the SWG and the strips...

Good luck!
