Is their any measurable difference other than price for the Kent vs. Two Little Fishes kalkwasser?

I would be using for top off with rodi at night is all. Thanks!

I've never seen anything to allow a comparison.

i made the mistake of buying brightwells kalk+...way overpriced IMO, i have since switched to mrs wages pickling lime 75% cheaper and does the same. i had a hard time finding it in my area and while at my local ACE hardware i found 6 bags and bought them all LOL . sadly it was about what i paind for brightwell+lies

FWIW, the plus part of Brightwell's kalkwasser plus is not a useful additive. The magnesium in it is not going to be soluble and is too little anyway. It actually doesn't have any more magneisum than is present in bulk supplies of calcium hydroxide. A poorly designed product, IMO, which is probably just touting natural impurities as a selling point.
