I've been looking for a THC potency tester for a while, but the prices have been prohibitive. So every once in a while, I'll get online and search to see if something new has come out. I found the right one (fingers crossed, looks legit) yesterday. This tester is exclusively for THC and will only test buds that are less than 1% CBD; they have another app coming out for hemp.
I looked at a tester that will give the whole cannabinoid/terpinoid profile: it's a thousand bucks with a one year warranty--a little too rich for my blood, and too much expensive shit you have to keep buying. https://www.mydxlife.com/shop/analyz...t-growers.html
Another is $419 (to test flower; there's a cheaper one to test infusions) plus another $125 for a supply of the reagent mix. That one only has a 6 month warranty, which makes me very suspicious. Why does PAX put a ten-year warranty on their devices? Cuz they back their own product. https://tcheck.me/product/essentials-plus
Then I found this one: Higrade, https://www.gethigrade.com made in Israel, where in the 1970s Dr. Raphael Mechoulam first isolated some of the major cannabinoids, including THC of course. He also discovered the Endocannabinoid System. Believe it or not, Israel has been on the cutting edge of Cannabis research for decades, and for $72 I'm definitely willing to give it a shot. Yes. I said 72 bucks.
Let the buyer beware. That's a lesson I've learned buying Cannabis-related equipment, and sometimes the lesson was cheap (but still a waste of my money)--like for a crappy trichome viewer for 10 bucks--, and sometimes not so cheap, I think I was a sucker paying so much for the Ghost MV1 vape; sorry to all who bought it on my recommendation (company now bankrupt). So the best equipment isn't necessarily the most expensive. My Belomo triplet loupe isn't the most expensive, but in my opinion, it's the best. Chikamasa trimmers, same thing: they've totally stayed sharp and outlasted former trimmers. My pH meter is an Apera for 50 bucks. Not a BlueLab, but fast and accurate.
I know some folks on the forum are interested in testing potency, so you can read about the devices I've mentioned and see what you think. I personally am excited as heck about this app. The price covers a one year subscription allowing up to 400 tests per month. Then you renew after a year. You get a 7 buck discount if you buy from their website.
I had to update IOS on my iphone 11; the app only works with 13.4 and above. Also, they list a few android phones it won't work with on their website. I'll report back as soon as mine arrives (already shipped from OR). Happy viewing, folks!!
