💡 Dive into Clean Water: Your DIY TDS Solution Awaits!
The KEYESTUDIOTDS Meter Probe is a versatile sensor module designed for Arduino enthusiasts, enabling precise measurement of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) in water. With a wide voltage supply range and easy plug-and-play setup, this sensor is perfect for both domestic water quality testing and hydroponics applications. Its ability to detect various conductive materials makes it an essential tool for ensuring clean and safe water.

Exactly what I needed
I bought this and the turbidity sensor to add to my K40 laser cutter setup. This thing turned out perfect. My issue is that it is cooled by water in a bucket in a place I can't see, so it makes it hard to tell if there's algae etc in the water. This sensor gives me instant readings. I just used the example code from the wiki and I was off to the races.

analog output, not a digital number stream
heck it works, but if you want accuracy with your projects the nature of a 0-2.6v analog value is a bit silly when measuring TDS via water conductivity, especially when compensation code fills more than 50% of your program area, would have been better if it was an SPI or similar serial stream that can be queried at a whim to get a fixed number of 0-1023(10 bit number that fits the 0-9999 TDS measurement range)they are cool and the amber power light isn't stupid like some green and blue LED's being run at the same current as red ones so you literally have to snap it off to not be blinded when you leave a setup running at night

Works but requires a lot of tweaking
I bought two of these to measure the TDS of the water going into my reverse osmosis system and the levels coming out. This way I know when to change the filters without just blindly doing so every x number of months. The data is logged into Home Assistant and I get a push notification when I need to replace them now.I originally connected these sensors to the analog-to-digital (ADC) on an ESP32 microcontroller, testing it in both the Arduino IDE and ESPHome. The voltage was all over the place and produced garage readings. I ended up using instead an ADS1115 (16-Bit, 4 channel ADC) and connected it to the ESP32 via the I2C interface. This eliminated most of the problems of repeatability and I was finally getting consistent readings. HOWEVER, there was still a lot of variation in readings from one probe to the next. I had to individually calibrate each sensor to correct this.There's sample Arduino for this product online which contains a calibration formula--ignore it, it's completely useless. Instead, I made eight different concentrations of a calibration solution by mixing lab-grade deionized water and table salt. I then plotted the observed voltage at each concentration and came up a linear calibration curve using the least squares means method. (This sounds complex but is rather easy to setup using the "calibrate_linear" filter in ESPHome). I did this for each of the two senors, making a unique calibration profile for each.Everything now works and is reasonably accurate for my needs. I am somewhat concerned about long-term drift but will update this review with my experiences over time.

Cumple su función
No es el mejor sensor para medir PPM, pero por el precio te saca de un apuro.

Junk
This device is an absolute junk, output is non linear, and extremely inacurate.
