all that confirms is that swing arms are not accurate between different brands.. there is a 0.006 differance in ranges on the same solution between the different brands.. to bad he didn't buy 6 og the same type and do it.. you would have seen the same type of readings.

now having said that refractoemters can be wonkey also.. you have to buy a quality unit with temp compensation. you do get what you payfor in refractometers and personaly I would not buy one under 100 bucks.
