Comment:
Used kit as instructed and then found NJ residents have to pay an added $10 fee. Included check and kit in mail. Check for added fee was cashed very quickly, results were never provided. Results go to Alpha Energy labs who adverstise online results available. That section of their website does not work. This product is a waste of money.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
