Default Where to buy pH calibration solutions in east?

Dear sifus,

Using a Dymax P20 test pen which I suspect is out of calibration because it kept giving high readings for my pond water.

Where can I buy the pH 4 and 7 calibration solutions in the east side of Singapore?

Many thanks in advance.

Pretty sure you'll be able to find a shop at Pasir Ris farmway which sells them. Try AquaEmpire?

Thanks bros isaacyeo and Sunday.

OTF and Mainland only has the pH 7 one. Got both pH 7 and 4 buffer solutions from Sam's Pet @ Marine Parade.

By the way read somewhere that can use Evian as a cheaper alternative for pH 7 buffer but may not be as accurate as it is +/- 0.2

Thanks.

For accuracy, better to calibrate using both pH 7 and 4 solutions than just pH 7. But noticed many shops only sell pH 7 buffer solution.
