The best investment!

Works very well! does the job. A really good investment for reef aquarium owners. This is required for coral placement. Stop wondering why your corals are dying. Stop throwing away hundreds when you can invest in one.

Pros
  • Ideal for underwater measurements of LED, incandescent or natural light
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Works great, would like more!

Works well, build quality but I wish it had more options such as the ability to read lumens or a spectrometer for the same money. It's a precise tool and it's helped me gain size so overall I'm happy and that's the only reason it gets 4 starts and not 3 and that's because it helped me develop the skills to improve and solve the problem.

Pros
  • Wired Quantum Sensor with 2m cable
Cons
  • New competitors have appeared

I needed a PAR meter and from all the positive reviews I knew that I needed Apogee. I also liked that it comes with a pole/handle to make it much easier to place the meter in different places without leaving room for an arm or hand. The problem is that the device only stayed on for 10 seconds. turns off automatically. It turned on immediately when I pressed the power button, but the cycle continued. I tried different batteries and the same result. When it was on it worked very well and I assume

Pros
  • Includes Apogee AM-320, 1m retractable scuba snorkel
Cons
  • Low repairability

Arrived exactly as promised - with carrying case

I bought a PAR meter with a probe. It came with a carrying case (one of the reviewers criticized the lack of a carrying case). Instructions -- High precision PAR meter. Easy to use. Made from high quality materials. Dislikes -- A plastic (Teflon?) screw is required to attach the sensor to the wand. Although they include a spare part, this makes storing the meter and sensor difficult after use. I recommend using velcro instead of a screw. My concern is that the sensor is hardwired to the meter…

Pros
  • Quantum Sensor Head IP68 waterproof design, meter is weatherproof.
Cons
  • Big and bulky
