Just a quick question for you REDOX gurus. Why does my REDOX monitor
jump if I plug in a powerhead?

I have two theories: First, starting the powerhead initiates a magnetic
current that is temporarily picked up by the ORP probe. Second, it
could be the result of the probe/monitor not being grounded.

I am using a Pinpoint monitor that runs on a 9v battery, ergo it
isn't plugged into a grounded outlet.

Any other ideas? If any of you guys know the answer on this one it
would be greatly appreciated.
