Kamoer Reef Master SPA multiparameter

[aimed]

correct, I probably fat fingered some calibration numbers while I was exploring the the app, the network just needed to be rebinded to the unit.

I was going to say, my po4 is spot on.

Ive owned a unit for 2 weeks now, and this is what I have to report.

Overall the unit works very well, the KH, CA and MG are all consistant and are what I expect based on other test kits and ICP's.

PO3 and NO3 need some work, however.

At first, both PO4 and NO3 were working nicely, and matching the Hanna Phosphous and HR Nitrate checker, but after an increase in feeding due to low PO4, today the Kamoer unit tests 0.030 for po4, Hanna 26ppb, 4.5ppb no3 for Kamoer, 13.6ppm Hanna HR Nitrate.

I hope this is just a calibration issue, because otherwise these units work mint.

What is the PO4 and nitrate in the same unit of measure?

 

[matmatoo]

Hanna 26 ppb 0.080 ppm
Kamoer 0.030 (Today its now reading 0.001)

Really disappointed tbh, as I purchased the unit to help with nutrient testing.

Yeah I have one as well.

I was told by Kamoer that the PO4 calibration fluid would be ready to ship end of March, I just reached out to get an update on that and the Fe testing reagent.

how often you guys calibrate the value? I have a CMK since early Feb, it run over 50 days still not match with my Ca Mg KH test. i have calibrate it 3 times, but the value will go crazy after calibration...

The test value still make me sad..Like yesterday.
Ca (AF test kit) 445 Kamoer 475
Mg (AF test kit) 1400 kamoer 1270
KH (Hanna) 8 Kamoer 7.86 (thats close)

i secluded the ca mg twice a day and KH 4 times a day

However i happy with it noise, it almost no sound while testing.

 

[Jonty]

how do you calibrate?

 

[matmatoo]

According to Kamoer, calibration fluid wont be available until April.

I was able to calibrate with Fauna Marin Multi Reference KH, CA, MG in the mean time, but not nutrients.

You'd have thought the calibration fluids would be available at the same time as they released the unit....

for me the most important is the wifi connection , does it disconnect as often as Alkatronics ?

 

[matmatoo]

ive had no issues with disconnection

 

[kamkam1999]

how do you calibrate?

Just enter my test result into the app

I had issues on one update, but after updating again it’s golden. Before that update it was good as well. My WiFi single isn’t great where it’s located either.

Wonder how this will complete with Hydros Maven. The Reef Master SPA has a slight advantage with testing nitrite and iron.

For the rest of the world that is not USA, there is no competition. Hydros is an american only product.

Still waiting on SPA to be released in Australia. I have the WQS3 and was please with how easy it was to setup, and I love having a screen on the device itself.

I’m wondering the same thing. I’m 100% ready to ditch my Tridents.
