Review on πŸ“ ANNMETER AN-881D Digital Illuminance Meter, Lux Meter with 0.01-400,000 Lux (0.01-40,000 FC) Foot Candle Measuring Ranges, Light Meter for Plants, Par Meter with 270Β° Rotatable Sensor by Chris Horton

Numbers corresponding to the expected performance of my lamps are not displayed

I was planning on using this light meter to adjust the lighting on the plants to ensure I was getting the maximum exposure without burning them. My LED and the recommended readings I was expecting are not even registering on the device. For example, my light should be able to produce at least 20-100,000 (nominal) and this counter shows no more than 2000-3000. The instructions aren't very comprehensive, so I don't know exactly how to set up the meter. I had this meter reading below what I needed and was still burning my plants. I would say it hasn't made me more confident with my lighting conditions.

Pros
  • Alright!
Cons
  • Expensive
