THEN I went to a search engine and to Amazon (dot) com to see what they were selling them for.
I still have not decided on one, but I do believe that Ebay is a good place to research an item.... but not necessarily to purchase.
Good luck!

I think you will find this meter perfect for what you are trying to do. I wound up returning 2 other meters with larger, wider, way deeper (requires a very large testing sample), more unwieldy electrodes before I found this one.
If you are wanting to check pH of Urine/Saliva, the pH Checker has a small, easy to clean electrode and is quick to use and very accurate. The small electrode means it is able to work with a smaller sample in a smaller container, and is also much easier to clean than the models with larger, wider and more deeply recessed electrodes.
I have found the "small sample" capability most valuable when checking the pH of saliva. The sample-container I have found most useful for checking Saliva pH is the plastic snap-on protective top cover which fits over the spray head of a Mane n Tail Brand 'hair detangler' spray bottle. This top is just about the size of a small thimble, and the pH Checker electrode tip goes right into it easily. The bigger pH meters won't fit into such a tiny sample container at all, and made checking saliva pH way too hard to do.
Trust me, at 3AM (or on the road) it will make a great difference how easy your equipment is to use :-).
Just line up your containers (Clean, upside down, on paper towels) on your way to bed, 1, 2, 3... and Done.

If the checker rang 0-14ph, what buffer calibration solution I need to buy? 4, 7, or 10 ph?

Don't worry, it's easy. Other than that, just follow the easy maintenance instructions that should arrive with your meter.

Borax
Good news for those living in Thailand who, like me, have had a difficult time finding pharmaceutical grade borax. Good Karma (supposed to be Thailand's only online health store) now carries it. http://www.healthfoodthailand.com/index.php

Speaking of bag balm reminds me, any of you following the current information on dairy products made from the milk from the cows shot full of BGH to make them produce more milk causing breast cancer in women, and causing more udder problems in the cows themselves. Wonder what else we will eventually learn it causes.

Magnesium Chloride
Hi Bill, where can I buy magnesium chloride flakes in Manila, also is it bad to use magnesium chloride oil transdermal therapy for people with high blood pressure? I often have leg cramp every night and have high blood pressure.
I do have chemical grade Magnesium Chloride crystals as well, but I bought this in Thailand and only use it for more major problems if and when they arise. Other forms that you can buy for oral use are Magnesium Citrate or Magnesium Gluconate -- which are also definetely sold at the Healthy Option stores.
For high blood pressure there is a herb that is quite useful called Tinospora cordifolia -- called Makabuhay in Filipino -- and you can purchase stem sticks quite cheaply at Quiapo Market in Quezon. This market sells herbs and they will have Makubuhay.
Preparation of Makabuhay Decoction
* Cut three 15" sticks into smaller three inch sticks.
* Bash the smaller sticks and open them up.
* Throw the sticks into 2 liters of water and simmer on low heat until the liquid is reduced to 1 liter.
* Cool, strain and store in fridge.
* Take a third of a glass of this decoction twice a day with any fresh, non-processed fruit juice(makabuhay tastes very bitter).
Makbuhay helps to thin the blood and reduce BP by diuretic action, helping to remove excess cholesterol from the blood and it also helps to remove excess calcium. It is also advisable to take a mineral supplement while using this decoction over the longer term because of its mild diuretic effects.
Also, try and reduce vegetable oils, sugar, dairy products and refined salt in your diet -- these are all causative factors in high blood pressure conditions. Use VCO, stevia(safe herbal sweetener) and sea salt instead in your diet. This will all help to reduce high blood pressure.

Has anyone tried this or is there anyone who will say not to try it? From reading many posts on many different sites regarding ACV I know the mother is very important and together with honey it goes well.
If anyone has any feedback or anything to say on this, please get back to me as I am thinking about giving this a go ( I suffer severe muscle /joint pains, with it likely to be beneficial to my family).

Borax
I am in Bangkok. I am looking for borax to cure my dogs mange. Please, where can I find it? And secondly where can I find Epsom salt for myself. Thank you much much. My dog is itching all the time. Derrik
I had the experience in dog mange. I used hydrogen peroxide, the normal grade 3-5% that you can find at any pharma shop. Do not select the clear bottle, use only the brown one. Mix about a half a red bull cap with the food twice a day. The smell will recede within a few days together with the itching and hair will eventually grow.
