Picked up a RAPT Pill hydrometer recently, starting setup today. Instructions say that approved santiizers are StellarSan and phosphoric acid. Just checking to see if anyone has used StarSan with their RAPT.
I saw this post on Reddit, but would prefer HBT confirmation :

It's quite possible RAPT has some kind of deal with StellarSan to recommend the latter in their instructions.

I've never used StellarSan, but would be very surprised if there is any functional difference.
 
Not much difference between the two if you look at their MSDS (section 3). The percentages seem close enough. You aren't soaking them for long... are you?

FYI... I've always used iodophor with my RaptPill. Still looks pretty much like new.
