Hey there all, is anyone familiar with the ppm meter on ebay seems decent. not a big fan of using a mini-screwdriver to calibrate.
what would you recommend?

Lol. There are lots of ppm/ec meters on ebay.
But from your very very vague description. I wanna say its a yellow n black Milwaukee ???
If so. I have used them. For 14-25$ they work. Some last yrs some last months. My last ph meter from them lasted 1yr. N started going weird. I've kept it as a back up. But not as my main. Went with bluelab for new one. Love it. Great tool.
I do still have my ec meter. Which still works perfect. But....... If your a serious grower step it up a lil. The end result will save grief. From my experience.
Link finally worked. Lmfao. Looks like a knock off of a nutridrip.

I like HM Digital TDS meters. Better than Milwaukee and very reasonable price. I have been using mine for years. A search for HM Digital will pull up lots of info.

Had a Hanna PH meter once, crapped out after a month or two.. c`est la vie.. I like the nutradip despite it uses a Philips to calibrate, Ill get a warranty this time 
my 1st ppm/ec ph meter was a used $50 bluelab tri meter in 2010
the PPM part went out last yea,
the ph part still works
from the serial number it was made in 07....
so the ppm/ec lasted 6 years and the ph part is still rockinit 7trs later
needless to say i got a bluelab ppm pen as a replacement, love using it
btw
checked the 7yr old Ph pen in calibration solution 2 days ago...dead on 4.1
buy quality equipment and you'll save in the long run
