I'm looking at 2 meters. Both have a resolution of .01. One has an accuracy of +_ .1, the other has an accuracy of +_ .2. Is the difference in accuracy worth twice the price? Will that much difference make a detectable difference in the wine. With my fruit wines I never worried about pH and they all came out pretty decent.

You answered your own question. Being .1 off is nothing to worry about. Get the cheaper one and use the difference to get a refractometer (sp?). Tom
I would suggest an accuracy of 0.2 units is unacceptable for winemaking; 0.1 pH units is the minimum accuracy I would accept. A
0.05 pH accuracy can be purchashed for under $100 US.0.2 units isn't much better than pH test strips. This is a logarithmic value so that error is substantial.
