PH meter + sump = need new PH meter

Ohh no! You should have made sure the power was disconnected and let it sit in fresh water and then dry it out fully. Might have come to life again.

I have both pin point and Milwaukee and find them both to be good. Milwaukee I have bought on e-bay but have never looked for pin point there.

I use the Milwaukee SM122 myself. Its a PH controller. I use it for Kalk as well.. I modified the unit a bit so it has a closed circuit when the PH falls below a certain value instead of above.

Seems to be very accurate as well (the PH probe)

I did the same thing to mine about 2 weeks after I bought it. I managed to resurrect it for a short while but eventually it went down the crapper (steady pH of 11.6). I just bought the milwaukee PH52 (its a one piece unit not continuous read though unless you strap it in somewhere). Its completely waterproof (so far but I haven't fully dunked it in) and wasn't too expensive. I got it here on the Island but I bet Wendell carries them.

i have the same unit (for a planted tank I was going to set up), and I find it very helpful. I just look at the monitor.

and yeah, a relay can make it trip whe pH falls below a certain value, instead of up.
