Light Meter Digital Illuminance Meter Handheld Ambient Temperature Measurer, Range up to 200,000 Lux, Luxmeter with 4 Digit Color LCD Screen

nice product. easy to operate and reliable addition to indoor planting.

I have houseplants and noticed this year that some of them were weakend and "dying". After talking to someone about my houseplant issues, they mentioned a light meter that they use. He suggested my plants were not getting enough light even though it's very bright in my home. Some of were plants were about 15 feet away which I thought was still bright enough. I eventually researched more on how much light plants should receive when they are in your house. This light meter works great! All I did was install the batteries it came with and turned it on. It was already calibrated. I removed the cover and started measuring the light coming in from my windows. I measured the light in the middle of my room and there is a big difference! I would have never thought it was that big of a difference since my home gets southern exposure sunshine all day! So, yes, this light meter helps! Now, I will position specific plants in certain spots in my home using this intuitive and easy to use light meter!

It works fine for measuring intensity. I think it's hilarious, however, that it measures thermal temperature instead of color temperature. I can almost seen the engineering meeting "Yeah, we want it to measure the color temperature." Engineer: "Huh? Color doesn't have a temperature? Well, temperature is temperature, and we can put in another sensor easily enough..." Final design review: "Did you test the color temperature measurement?" ... "Of course! It measures within 0.2 Degrees!" ... "Wow. Not many of our competitors can do 0.2 degrees. OK, let's make 20,000 of them." ... And then, weeks later, the team proudly presents the first article to the sales team, who replies: "What on Earth is this!?! It was supposed _color_ temperature! Do you even know what that is? You're smart guys, right?" Somebody FINALLY looks up what "Color temperature" is: "Oh poop. Well, now we have 20,000 of them. Too late to change now."

I had seen this product used on Sheffield Made Plants and wanted to give it a try, as I will be bringing my house plants indoors in the near future, for the winter season. As any plant lover, I want my plants to happy and thriving, and in the most ideal conditions I can provide. Therefore, ensuring they are getting the ideal amount of sunlight is essential. This device has allowed me to check different rooms and distances from the windows, to find the ideal space for my plants to spend the winter months. In addition, because I will be placing them on a wire rack, I will be purchasing Grow Lights to ensure I have the optimal lighting for my plants to thrive this winter. The device fit nicely in the palm of your hand and is quite easy to use, and the instructions are easy to follow. It requires 3 AAA batteries, which the manufacturer has generously provided, which adds to the value for the money. You have the option of Lux or Foot Candles for measuring the light. My only complaint is that it only report the temperature in Celsius and there is no option to report in Fahrenheit. But honestly, if thats the only issue, this little gadget is a steal for all it does and what you get. So, if you're in need of knowing how much natural or artificial light you're getting in a room, buy this. It is a great little device.

This is a great tool for telling you the lumen in a particular area. I have used this to check my CoolFire LED lights, which they exceeded their advertised brightness. I've also used this to see how much brightness is coming from a floor lamp in a room. While saying a room is bright or not bright is one thing, having the evidence to back it up is another. It's a quality but inexpensive meter that is great for basic everyday use when you need to know how bright an area or something is. It's handheld, which makes it easy to use.

This digital light meter works reliably and is very easy to operate. It provides quick and consistent readings for ambient light levels, which makes it useful for both home and workspace applications. The handheld design feels practical and lightweight, and the display is clear and easy to read. Overall, a great tool for the price with solid performance.

It works. Only issue is that I can’t read the display under the light.

I use this to judge wear my plants need to be in distance to my grow lights. So helpful!

Works amazing for plants to make sure they are getting enough sunlight!!!

気に入ったところ １．コンパクトで軽量 ２．測定値がすぐに表示されてレンジも自動で手間がない ３．HOLD機能があるので測定値をメモするのに便利

正確なのかはわかりませんが使いやすい！

This is a nice little meter. It doesn’t have to be as accurate as a lab instrument. It allows you to get a good feel for lighting and compare different areas.

I used this handy little meter to measure the existing lighting in a large parking lot prior to hiring a Lighting Contractor to install new poles and fixtures. This very low cost gadget was handy to use, gave consistent light values once I found that you needed to turn it off and then on again at the next reading location. I didn't need scientific accuracy and this probably doesn't deliver that but it gave what I believe to be reliable results to form the basis for laying out new light pole locations to achieve even illumination taking into account the impact from adjacent street lights. Definitely a useful tool.
