The cheap one
The "really badass, but more expensive" one
From his article:

I use this.
It's cheap, and has been reliable for over a year. I have compared results to the pH meter with the fresh water master kit, and it's been pretty solid.
Brand doesn't matter to me, I always get the yellow and black ones. They are branded under so many different names.

That plus a good calibration kit($15) and you are good to go. I will typically throw them out if they start malfunctioning but I usually get at least a year out of them
Yeah I didn't go into it expecting much (an ounce or two) so we'll see what it comes out too, i'll be happy to get that.
Here are the links for the meters I get. I tested the ph meter and compared it to drops and it is spot on. Not sure about the ppm one but it got good reviews.

Works okay by all accounts.
Could I recomend a ph probe? They are not the best when cheap like this. But will be easy, quick and readable.
