Any recommendations on which TDS meter to purchase?

It depends on how sensitive you want it to be. What's the intended purpose?

That said, I have a Hanna TDS / pH / temperature meter that I'm quite happy with.

just to use on my tanks. My new house has a well and the water is very hard. I'd like to mix it with RO and get a stable TDS reading.

I think several of us have a Hanna Combo meter. Either

HI 98129
Combo pH/EC/TDS/Temperature Tester with Low Range EC

or

HI 98130
Combo pH/EC/TDS/Temperature Tester with High Range EC
http://www.hannainst.com/usa/prods2.cfm ... HI%2098130

Cheers.

Hey Chris,
I bought a cheap one off eBay for ~$20 shipping included. I've never tested it against anyone elses, but it appears to work well enough. My RO water measures 0. My Takoma Park tap measures around 200. I'll dig up the auction info, if you're interested.
