I'm also using the 2nd "improved" version and I'm also reading in the High 1500's. Looks like I'm sticking to Salifert. Thanks for posting your results.
As with the other Hanna Checkers I have, cut the reagent dry packets along the dotted lines to open. This makes getting the all the powder out of the packet, and easier to pour into the vial. I just ordered the Hanna Magnesium Checker today. My old Red Sea Magnesium test kit was outdated and wanted to go to the Hanna.
Thank you for your comment, please let me know how you like the new checker since im having wind readings all over the place and cant trust the reading.
I just got this checker. Test #1 1480, test #2 1600... Gonna test it again and compare to my LFS readings. May have to return this checker. The Calcium and alkalinity ones tested good but I'm a bit concerned about this magnesium checker.
Thanks for sharing! Share your sentiments about the inaccuracy. What a waste of money. Definitely wouldn't recommend. Always a 1000 and some change high.

Will be doing a third RUclips video on this checker. I think i have a fix for this issue but will need everyone help to confirm once i post the video.
@@artisticreefs I'll keep my eyes open for when you drop the video. I'll be willing to help confirm.
