I don't have the money for a real expensive PH meter. So was looking to see if the less expensive ones were any good.

Like this one:

http://www.finevinewines.com/XPListDet1.asp?MM_PartNumber=HI98103A



Does anybody know if these are good or not?

Does it have Auto Cal and Auto Temp Comp?

Is it easy to use and understand?

No ATC or auto cal. Looks like the cal is manual, single point at 4.01.

The doc says +/- .2 for pH

BTW, when I clicked the link above, I got a Merlot juice bucket ...
 
Jon,

Yes, when I clicked the link you posted it took me to a Merlot Juice bucket. However, I searched the catalog number (HI98103A) and was able to view the meter you are discussing. This meter is not waterproof. IMO, I'd save the extra 35 bucks and go for the p Hep 5. The biggest expense in pH testing in the long run will be your calibrators and cleaner.

The last one you posted is the one most of us use including me and I love it. Ive had mine about 2 years now with no problems at all. Make sure you get it with the 4.01 and the 7.01 solutions, the storage solution and the probe cleaner!
 
I have THIS ONE and it works good. I kinda wish I had a handheld sometimes.
