I just recently bought a Trident and on Friday for the first time replaced Reagent A. I was planning to do the calibration this morning but when I looked inside the box of reagents, there's only one calbration solution included. If I use it, I won't have any solution left for when I switch out Reagents A, B & C in another month. My question is this...should I do the calibration now just on Reagent A or wait until I switch out all three?
 
You’ll get the most benefit from calibration after swapping all 3.
 
ok, thanks. Do the reagents typically vary by much when you do calibrate them?
 
You'll get a new bottle of calibration solution when you get new reagents.

The two bottles of reagent A in a 'set' are from the same batch.
 
A good trick which may go over well, may not.. I test my water with my Hanna kits and use my tank water to calibrate my trident. So far it works well. That’s just an option.
