how much storage solution and calibration solution comes with this? is it something that I could do without initially to get by or plan to buy with it

They only give you enough for a one time calibration. You will need to buy the appropriate storage solution. A little goes a long way.

FROM HM DIGITAL: The COM-80 comes with a small sachet of storage solution for initial use. Is is important to store the meter in a KCl storage solution such as our PH-STOR http://www.tdsmeter.com/products/phstor.html

It comes with maybe a ketchup packet worth of calibration solution which will calibrate initially. You can go about a month without calibrating. It falls off a point or 2 by then.

Only a minimum amount of calibration and storage solution comes with the instrument - just enough for the initial calibration and storage. I would recommend purchasing additional solutions when I purchased the instrument. FWP

It came with enough to get started. You will need to purchase some additional storage solution and calibration fluid maybe within a month. The pH meter is very good at holding calibration.

My advise, buy a solution,, 7.0 and a 4.01.., it does come with a storage solution which is a one time use. If you plan on using your ph meter every week or more your gonna want the solution. It's best to know your ph is on point all the time especially for certain plants.. you can get away with just one solution (7.0), I personal like to use to calibration solutions cause it gives you 2 different readings, that way you know your pen is on point,, some future advise, use 2 shot glasses and pour each cali solution in each,, that way to much isnt wasted in a cup, also if you put plastic wrap or something to top the shot glasses you can use that same solution for up to a month, that way your not constantly pouring new solution in your shot glasses everyday or week. They say you only calibrate once a month, thats false, you calibrate it when it needs it, I have this same pen and its ok, but I have to calibrate it every 2 weeks and I use it twice a week. Thats why its good to have those shot glasses on standby so you dont have to pour and waste more. Oh and when you put in shot glass just make sure it fills up enough to cover the whole rod which should be right above the slit (the opening to the right of the circle shape hole) which is like the halfway mark between the HM logo and bottom. All in all good luck and enjoy

Don't buy this product. Mine stopped working within a couple of months. Get a cheap one from ebay and some calibration solution.

calibration solution is about 1oz and storage is very little I made up the calibration and stored it in the refrigerator for about a month then it became unstable and i got rid of it as for storage solution it was maybe 10cc and I have been using filtered water to store it in seems to be working very well...Good Luck

the monitor comes calibrated out of the box, it is actually quite good. but im sure you could use x-rite, but i have never used it to calibrate any screen. so i dont know forsure but calibration out of box is very good, it even comes with a calibration chart in the box

What you get with it is: Magic Wand 4 portable scanner AC adapter USB cable Cleaning cloth Calibration paper Pouch Software CD-ROM User manual Quick-start guide Manufacturer's 1-year limited warranty and I am pretty sure that an 8 gig memory card came with it also. I suggest not getting a memory card until you see if one comes with it or not. You can get one from Walmart pretty cheap. The unit is rechargeable. I haven't tried to open it up to see what type of rechargeable batteries are in it. It seems to work a long time on a charge. If you are talking about the docking station, you can get one from Office Depot for $80.

Yeah. That is all it came with. I was unable to get mine to work, due to software compatibility issues. Note that their customer support was basically Nonexistant. However, that may have changed since I sent mine back a few years ago. Definitely check with others for their experience. -Nate Hall

I found no calibration feature. You can contact the manufacturer and they will answer your question further.

it comes with calibration solution, but i think it does in fact come pre calibrated

The only issue I have had, and it's really the way it should be is that you can't calibrate if you have any imaging software open, this includes windows photo viewing programs.

You could have just bought a hard disk and installed it in the DVR (it's easy). I got a 500GB hard drive on eBay for $45, and a 4 camera system for $130 so I paid $175 all together.

I bought storage of 120G+ But it is easy to buy a storage device (like external hard drive, or thumb drive etc.) if you need more.

Mine did come with the two calibration packets, but I purchased General Hydroponics Standard Reference Solution when I ordered the unit. I used that to calibrate it when it came and found it to be exactly 7.0. Would recommend getting the extra solution.

The one I received was pretty close about 0.2 if I remember correctly. It is not really an issue though as it comes with chemicals to mix calibration solutions. You just need to mix it with distilled water.

I just use calibration DVD's. This way you can calibrate any TV you wish at any time. And it's $110 cheaper :) The biggies are Digital Video Essentials and Avia (Avia II is the latest - it's here on Amazon). I've used both - I buy Avia now because it includes plastic filters, which you need to use to adjust tint. Now, this TV does have a 'Blue only' mode, so you don't need the filters for this TV, but you do for most TVs. Anywho, they really walk you through video and audio calibration, you don't need to be an expert at all, and it gets the same results as Best Buy. Better, actually, because calibrating in a store under fluorescent lights won't get you as good results as calibrating in your home.

I used it to calibrate my desktop and laptop with no problems. If you want constant monitoring for light you have to have the device connected to that computer.

you can allocate how much space is available for event, motion detection and normal recording in the settings. I had an 8gb card which got filled completely, I just installed a 32gb a month ago and there is still room available. I will continue to monitor if the camera can use all of it.

You only need the recommended paper. It comes in little packets of 10. Open the outer wrap, there is a calibration card that instructs how to load. Drop in the stack as directed. It will eject the calibration card and you'll be set to go.

Have you used a calibration disk of any kind? I recommend the "WoW" from Walt Disney. It improved my picture even though it wasn't off much.

Mine arrived with a calibration slide. (A metallized scale ) You can use the software to set a grid value with it, and get results as as good or better as an eyepiece micrometer.The software has to be mastered, and it can take a while.
