It's possibly user error but it sometimes won't work for some mysterious reason. A red error message comes on in weirdly unpredictable circumstances and it won't work, even with new batteries.
i really dislike unpredictable technology and have subsequently bought a squeeze filter and gone back to chemical tabs.
