    Works great! I use to find PPFD without spending hundreds on a PPFD meter by simply doing a little math found on Google!

    Wanted to measure the light intensity on various locations of a pool table. The BCA and WPA both recommended a minimum of 520 lux. The BCA recommends 860+ for tournament play and the WPA recommends 1000 lux. Our local pool hall was terrible and I opted to help the owner out with accurate readings and lighting recommendations. I purchased this unit because I felt it was more accurate than using the app on my iPhone. Would purchase again.

    This light meter is very nice! It's simple to use, with an easy system that lets you read light intensity with either lux or footcandles. It only has four buttons on the front that are very straightforward, with the settings allowing you to change the units of measurement, a hold setting, and min/max to hold the reading on the highest or lowest amount. You can also switch on the backlight with the hold button, which is really handy for low-light settings.If you're using this for photography, it doesn't have the ability enter in your camera settings like a much more expensive Sekonic light meter, but for the price, it's worth doing the basic conversion formula to figure out exactly the right settings. If you're doing film photography on an older camera without the automatic settings adjustment like a traditional medium or large-format camera, this would be a great, affordable option that costs about as much as a pack of film and is going to give you a significantly better exposed image if used correctly. I took some film photography courses in college, and something like this would have been hugely helpful if I kept it in my bag.The device itself seems to be very well-made, as well. The sensor and body seem to be built to withstand a bit of knocking around, and I don't expect that regular usage would result in it being damaged enough to impact usability.My one gripe with this light meter is the battery configuration - 3 AAA batteries is a bit odd. Thankfully, it includes batteries, but I would have much preferred a meter that takes 2 AA batteries, even if it meant it would be a little wider.Overall, I really like this light meter. For the money, its readings are fast, accurate, and simple, and it seems much better quality than many of the cheaper options on Amazon. Highly recommend!

    Works very well. The only negative is that it's not very easy to read.

    Works exactly as described. Easy to use, and appears very well made. Much heavier unit than I expected for the cheapest light meter on Amazon. I'll only use this a few times so can't comment on durability other than as already mentioned.

    Battery lasts long. Pretty easy to use and I can find the manual online if i need it. Pocket sized af. Haven't tested the accuracy but it gives good enough ready for dyi-at home use.

    Was great for my daughter’s school project. Not sure how accurate it is as I have nothing to cross reference with.

    I purchased this instrument when a club I belong to was concerned their lighting wasn’t up to standard. I thought this will give us a “ball park” measurement and then we will need a better more expensive instrument. This little meter proved to be incredibly easy to use, made very repeatable measurements, and showed an accuracy way better than expected. If you are looking for a good, reliably accurate light meter to use around your facility this is a great choice.

    Easy to use. Tested in a few places that I knew what the light levels should be, and it was close, so it would seem to be relatively accurate. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of other meters, but I really don't need those. For what I need and the price point, this is perfect.

    I tried using some of the apps available for you phone but would get different readings in the same area (under artificial lighting) just a few seconds apart. This meter gives fairly consistent results under the same set of conditions. Got it to quickly be able to tell how much light my plants are getting as compared to what they need to grow… already prompted a few plant moves and they seem happier in their new locations. Definitely worth it for the price.

    I grow quit a few veggies, and herbs in my basement, and bought an Apogee MX-500 Par meter to read the PAR of lighting my plants get. On one of the Facebook Indoor Growing groups, someone insisted that this much less expensive LUX meter could be use, and the measurement could be accurately converted to PAR.I also read a few of the reviews on this LUX meter where some multiplied the LUX reading by 0.017 and other divided the LUX reading by 59. I used both methods and the calculated PAR was the same. I measured 3 different areas of lighting with both the Uni-t LUX meter and the Apogee MQ-500 PAR meter. All readings were taken under LED 65K lighting.The results were:LUX = 3112, Calculated to PAR was 52.75Actual PAR was 472LUX = 1571, Calculated to PAR was 26.63Actual PAR was 251LUX=2360, Calculated PAR was 40.12Actual PAR was 379Since the best PAR readings for growing plants can be from 250 PAR for seedlings to possibly 800 PAR for flowering, I don't see how the readings calculated from LUX readings relate at all since LUX measures the brightness of lighting and not the quality of lighting used by plants.I hope this review is helpful for you and gives you something to think about.
