You should look into electronic meters. Some of the things that test
kits test for can be tested with simple pen type meters pH, salinity,
Nitrate, calcium etc.

Some are expensive, but you might want to look into this for the ones
you are having problems with, assuming it is just certain tests.

I bought a pH meter because it is so hard to tell the difference between
the shades of red on my test strips.

I am very color deficiant. I don't see colors quite the same way as most
people do and therefore I have a real problem telling the difference between
subtle colors like those in most test kits.

If anyone here has the same problem and can direct me to a test kit that is
easier to use, please, please, send me a link. My wife is getting tired of
"Honey, which color does this match to ?"
