For me this thing can still somewhat test setted diamond into rings as long as its in the right angle. However I havent tested a lab grown vs a natural yet. Not full proof, One dealer lab diamond past natural but his moisonite tester pass for moisonite couple of times. Turns out it was lab from gia. may purchase another lab tester for $400 to be extra sure. But this is great so that you wont get burnt that easily from unscrupulous people. Update stop working after 9 months. Workin with factory warranty. Get the 3 year extension only $20 bucks Review: Inaccurate - Lost $2,500. Tested a pair of studs as natural that were labs. Quit working completely after warranty had expired. ## Features - Advanced technology that measures a diamond’s UV light transmittance ability - 2 color coded (blue/red) indicator light bars to give a low or high reading of UV light absorption with blue light indicating Natural Diamond and red light indicating Type IIa Diamond - Instantaneous clear results within 2 seconds - Blue light to illuminate the testing pad ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01GILXW0O | | Best Sellers Rank | #314,475 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #116 in Jewelry Diamond Testers | | Blade Shape | Rectangular | | Brand | Presidium | | Brand Name | Presidium | | Color | Turquoise | | Customer Reviews | 3.3 out of 5 stars 29 Reviews | | Handle Material | Plastic | | Included Components | Adaptor/Accessories | | Item Weight | 1.39 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Presidium | | Manufacturer Part Number | unknown | | Other Special Features of the Product | Advanced UV Light Transmittance Measurement Technology | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Special Feature | Advanced UV Light Transmittance Measurement Technology | | UPC | 640823584570 640823579231 | | Warranty Type | limited warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Presidium - **Color:** Turquoise - **Included Components:** Adaptor/Accessories - **Power Source:** Battery Powered - **Special Feature:** Advanced UV Light Transmittance Measurement Technology ## Images ![Presidium Synthetic Diamond Screener II (SDS II) | Portable Desktop Diamond Tester for Lab-Grown vs Natural Diamonds | Detects CVD & HPHT | Tests Melee Stones from 0.02 Carat | USB & Battery Powered - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81iETeYHljL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this detect a F1 Moissanite?** A: No this is not a moissanite tester **Q: will this detects lab grown diamonds???** A: Yes this will detect CVD and HPHT **Q: Hi, what is the warranty on this?** A: It comes with a 1 year manufactuers warranty. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Get the warranty extension *by A***R on September 10, 2019* I agree with the other 5 star review.

Tested a pair of studs as natural that were labs. Quit working completely after warranty had expired. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Why other reviewer left one star no explanation *by L***O on August 9, 2019* Seems to work fine. The only thing is when testing. The diamond has to be out of the ring otherwise if you put the diamond in the device face down still in the setting it may test as natural even though it in a lab grown. What is it about the device the other reviewer didnt like? Im curious. the other reviewer left 1 star. But why? Respond.
