525 - I would believe the newest Salifert test kits. You said the new Salifert kits are not expired, is that correct? and they are reading the same result? That's what I would go with.

Egads! I had no idea. 525 - check the batch numbers in comparison to the threads at Salifert's foum on RC. Maybe Boomer can shed some light on this subject and how to know what's right or wrong?

I have no idea Nikki what is going on. Part of it is Habib being really sick and Salifert is falling big time due to this. He got better a fews month ago and now has disappeared again from his own forums. He has not posted on RC at all sicne April. That was like 4 posts and before that he was gone for two months.
