Hi everybody,
I just received a Milwaukee MW102, but upon opening I found a layer of crystals along the body of the ph probe. Seems pretty obvious that the storage solution for the probe has leaked and dried there. The bottle covering the probe end is about half full of liquid. While laying on it's side (the position that it would be in while in it's box) the end may not be covered in liquid.
Obviously I could just return it, but if it's still viable, I would like to keep the current one. However, even if it were to still calibrate correctly, may the life of the probe have been compromised?
I sent an email to the manufacturer, since that seems to be their only method of communication, but would like to also hear your thoughts on how to handle this unit.
Thanks
