Would any of these test kits work for my outside wood burner?  They all test what I need to test but I'm not sure if the range of nitrates goes high enough. They only claim 50ppm.  If not where can I get the right test kit for me?

Maybe check with woodboilersolutions.

That was gonna be my suggestion. Both test kits you show are for drinking water, not boiler water.

I picked up the one on the left from Menards just for sh*ts and giggles. Iron, copper, lead, hardness were all at zero with the test for bacteria and pesticides being negative. Feel pretty good about the new water softener, I have a tritiation kit for testing hardness, at 38 grains out of the drinking water tap at the sink, at 0 out of the regular tap at the sink.

You really need a kit for boiler water, it will test at much higher levels of nitrates and might cover a few other things as well.
