I get very high reading with this Elos kit way above what I think is possible. Results are 15 x 50=750 and 10 x 10=100 for a total of 850. Another test kit I had checked at 560 seems to be more accurate. That test kit was a Nutrafin. Even the instructions in the Elos kit don't seem right "8 x 50= 450 and 5 x 10=50 Total 425" To me the total should be 500. Any one have similar problems with this kit or am I doing something wrong?

First step 5 ml of water add 7 drops of A then 15ml (small end of spoon) of B shake vial then use C drop by drop till color changes to blue.
Lets say you got 9 drops which is 450.
Then step 2 follow first 2 steps in first step but you do 1 less drop of C than drop by drop of D lets say you have 4 drops of D.
So 400 from step 1 than 40 from step 2 = 440.
Myself I dont bother with step 2 if I get 8 drops I know Im close to 400 if I get 9 drops I know Im above 400 but not over 450.
Thats close enough for the girls I go out with :)
My target is 9 drops.
HTH.
I dont know why ELOS instructions are typed wrong but it happens

Yeah, the instructions are wrong. I noticed that too. Is there a possibility that you have an expired kit? That does seem way too high.
