I read a thread on R2R about the ST and only one person claimed their PO4 was off every once in a while. Also seen that the reagent disks can be hard to get at times. But I haven’t found a lot of bad yet. I’m going to do some more digging before I drop that kind of money on one. But so far, I’d get this over the trident.

My thoughts exactly. I haven't come across any really bad reviews so far in regards to accuracy. I did see the thread about the PO4 being off occasionally and about it only showing a tenth decimal point place. I have no issue verifying with the hanna as needed for PO4 as it gives me accurate readings so far. 8 tests in 2 minutes! Lol, I'm hoping it turns out to be as good as it sounds.

So seems like both the Aquaspin and Spintouch are both made by the same company LaMotte, or are one in the same?

Doesn’t one have good reviews and one have not so good reviews? I’ll have to look into this new discovery.

@Joe That's what I had seen. Not so good on Aquaspin and pretty decent on Spintouch. I know the unit are for different testings like one for saltwater, another for pools, etc. I believe I saw where you can use the same unit with different discs to test both saltwater and fresh. Still researching as well.
