Higher end Ph meter?

I have an Apera Ph meter ($50) that lasted 10 months and now it will not calibrate. I have another one arriving tomorrow b/c I’m on day 29 of flower, but can anyone recommend a high end Ph meter? I want something that will last for several years and I’m willing to spend $200-$300. I know the $100 Blue Labs is popular, but I can’t help but wonder how much better a $100 meter is compared to a $50 meter. I don’t want to spend $100 and then need to replace it 18-24 months after purchasing.

Those have a 1-year warranty right? Just curious, are they sending you a new one? This is the one that I currently use: https://amzn.to/3e8bZHu

Do you store it in storage solution?

I didn’t think about the warranty. I use the $50 model. I normally store it in tap water b/c that’s what it says, but I did throw it in some storage solution. I‘ve figured out that it’s off by 0.6 and I’m going to do adjust based on that. I honestly haven’t been keeping up on making sure it’s been accurate and it has cost me.
