00:00Okay, so here I have this water tester and I'm going to do a quick review on this
00:03I'm going to tell you everything that you should know before buying it and if I think it's worth it
00:06So the reason I got this is because I wanted to see how clean and how pure my water actually is
00:12You get the tester itself and you also get this cool little case to put it in
00:16So how this works is that you actually put these prongs into water
00:20And then it'll tell you how pure your water is
00:22And on the back it actually shows you a little graph so you can see what your water rating means
00:27The closer to zero your water is the better it is. So i'm going to do a quick little test
00:31I'm going to test my tap water versus my filtered water and see the difference
00:35And what's also cool about this is that it not only measures the total dissolved solids, but also measures the temperature too
00:41All right, so now let me get a glass of tap water
00:43Just like that and then i'll get a glass of filtered water in a different glass
00:49There we go
00:51All right, so we got the tap sink water and we also got the tap water but filtered through my brita filter
00:57We'll test the tap water first
00:59247
01:01That's not good 248 parts per million
01:04Let's look on the back and see how bad that actually is
01:06So 248 is considered marginally acceptable
01:10It's in the average tap water range, but if you're drinking tap water daily, you'd want something much more pure than that
01:16All right, we cleared it now. Let's see how pure this filtered water is
01:20158
01:22Okay, still not great, but way better than the unfiltered water
01:26158 is a little better than marginally acceptable
01:29But still not ideal. Maybe it's time for me to get a reverse osmosis water filter
01:34But yeah, overall this thing works pretty great
01:36And if you're looking to test your water, I think this is a great choice for a tester and I would definitely recommend it
