Comparing the Jupiter [Emco Tech] Melody Water Ionizer with the Enagic LeveLuk SD501 Water Ionizer

Just exactly how does the Jupiter Melody Water Ionizer compare with the Enagic LeveLuk SD501?
I’ve personally tested both the Jupiter Melody water ionizer and the Enagic water ionizer and found that in many ways the Melody water ionizer [at about 1/3 the price of the Enagic water ionizer] was superior to the Enagic water ionizer. How is this possible? The Enagic people boast so much about being the best, and how is it possible that they really only compare averagely? Here’s an observation I’ve made:
Enagic water ionizer sellers are not showing you their tests!
Is that because the Enagic LeveLuk SD501 doesn’t test better? That’s exactly why. Of course they say they test better. How would they get those high prices if they didn’t? But the fact is, that the only testing I have seen of the Enagic [and I've looked high and low for every water ionizer test on the internet] is by independent non-biased sellers (like myself) or distributors from other companies. And the Enagic has never performed better than the other water ionizers in any of those tests!
I’m going to show you my own tests of both the Melody water ionizer and the Enagic water ionizer (in videos below) and the complete comparison between the two water ionizers in this comprehensive water ionizer comparison chart.

Some of the things I like better about my Melody water ionizer are:
-
The self-cleaning design of the Melody water ionizer makes the water ionizer plate-cleaning within the water-cell automatic –after you turn off the water ionizer, rather than interrupting the water ionization process
-
The polarity of the water ionization plates shifts after each use, so you never get calcium build-up [which can be the biggest trouble down the line with any water ionizer investment].
-
The Melody water ionizer isn’t a new design and it’s been tried-and-true for many years. As far as water ionizers go, this is not a light statement to make.
-
The price!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here’s a video I did 2 months ago where I tested the flow rates of the Melody water ionizer. This is a good sample video to show how great the ionized water quality consistently is in my Melody water ionizer.
I also did complete testing of the Enagic LeveLuk SD501 water ionizer at about the same time, and you can see in these 2 videos that the Enagic water ionizer does not produce as good ionized water quality as the Melody water ionizer. I’d say according to my tests today, that the Enagic water ionizer [at a price of $3,800.00] produces the equivalent level of water ionization quality as the new Venus water ionizer though. This is not to put down the ionized water produced by the Enagic water ionizer! I love the quality of water the Enagic water ionizer produces! And I think it’s a pretty machine too. I also love the water quality produced by the Venus water ionizer and the Melody water ionizer. Here are the Enagic water ionizer videos:
If you’re looking for more comparisons between the Melody and the Enagic water ionizers, see this: http://www.alkalinewaterplus.com/melody-enagic-athena-water-ionizer-comparisons . It’s a water ionizer comparison chart accompanied by videos that really go into depth on the Melody, Enagic, and Athena water ionizers. It shows how you have to look past just the pH and the ORP to judge the quality of a water ionizer. You have to do all that, but then take it one step further and calculate the rH (relative Hydrogen).
Also, If you’re looking for objective and scientific testing done by a laboratory of the Melody, Enagic, Tyent, Athena water ionizers, here’s the video to see:
How do both the water ionizers compare? They are both great…but one’s just a whole lot more expensive! People need to learn about water ionization for their health, because ionized water is top dog in my book [of what to do to keep your body healthy]. I think the everyday-person will be happy to know that you don’t have to spend thousands of dollars to get this healthy, superior quality, ionized water into your body — cleansing your cells — every day of your life!
Also, with the payment plan I offer on my website, more and more people will be able to have daily access to nice, fresh, high pH and ORP, alkaline ionized water!
