This one has a huge therad devoted to it somewhere (Don't have the link). The consesus was that they were no good andnot worth it.

I have this device. I bought Pin point electronic calcium monitor , because I supposed that I will measure Ca easier (faster) with better precision.

According to my opinion it is not useful, because
it is faster to measure Ca with test kit like Salifert and
even precision is not good (20 ppm)
