A colorimeter can make you use very accurate amounts of chemicals which could add up in a big pool, but im not saying more than say 10% saving over reagents, depends on your colour vision and whether you can figure out that damned spot.
EG a colorineter will tell to 0.01 ppm, i defy anyone to get closer than 5ppm with some of the reagent tests [of course some are 10ppm per drop...

I guess if you're running a b&b you have to meet health and safety requirements for your pool? I wonder if this is approved or not for that?
