Surface Cleanliness Tester ATP Rapid Detector, Portable ATP Hygiene Moniter Meter, Swab Not Included

This Surface Cleanliness Tester is a simple and easy tool to use check if surfaces are clean. It gives me quick and accurate results, allowing me to see that things are hygienic. Swab wasn't included with it so you would have to buy it separately. Overall a great handy device for your business or even personal use.

I was impressed with the consistency of the results. Would recommend

Overall, this worked ok, but one thing to pay very close attention to, is removing and inserting the chamber for the ATP test device. It has a tendency to hang up a little bit. So pay very close attention to the orientation, make sure you have it pointed correctly or you can damage it.The reason for the star off, is...AA batteries? Really? We should be living in the era of the AA battery going out of style in favor of small rechargeable LiPo packs. No, here we run on AA batteries for some reason. So, in sticking with my tendency to give good advice, after you're done using this, REMOVE THE BATTERIES (*super-ultra pro tip x1000*). Yes, it's a pain to set the time and date every time you use it. But, if you don't, the alternative might be taking this out and powering it up, only to find it dead. Then you open it up to change the batteries, and the old batteries have leaked all over the place. You don't want to see $5 batteries run a $700 machine. If you have employees that use this, make sure they do the same.It's nice, but I'd rate it higher if it was rechargeable and I didn't have "leaking alkaline battery paranoia" eating away inside me.

This surface cleanliness tester is easy to use and it is very tempting to test everything around you. It is pretty simple to operate using the buttons. I dislike the fact that it uses batteries, when having a rechargeable battery would be much more efficient and recharging it would be so much easier, as everyone has a charger with them these days. I like that it has a little case to keep it stored in. It gives you the results quickly and the screen is easy to read. The ease of use and fast results make this very useful for testing on the go. The biggest thing I would recommend is looking up how much the swabs cost, as this doesn’t come with any. They are pretty expensive and that has to be taken into consideration when looking at which brand to go with, as this doesn’t work with just any old swab you may have. All in all, I like the speed, ease of use and accuracy of this detector.
