Acurate 8 Ph meter

[Padawan1972]

Posted this in LS, didnt know where to post it. Decided to post here since PH is very important for healthy plants

Question: Who is the maker of the actual true Acurate 8 PH soil meter?. Took a look at them..and seeing alot of what looks like as knock offs. Also, seeing ones with 12" probe and one with 12" probe. What iam I looking for ..thanks for the help guys/gals

@Waira would probably know the actual. But I'm thinking it's the Control Wizard https://controlwizardproducts.com/proddetail.php?prod=Accurate-pH-8
I can also see how there are many that look identical and be hard to figure which one to get.

Hey Pad'! .... yeah, CWP is the usual brand name, but others (in EU I think) got the same unit, under a different name,.. same Chinese factory basically!
there's an A7, a stubby unit --> hsoil:.. long probe is the A8,.... very happy with mine, 4 years old now, well cared for,... I have tested it against a slurry run, two different soils (Roots and King's Mix, damn nice soil BTW)... all were within 0.2 pH of each type of testing method!
