Hydrofarm Light Meter

!
Hydrofarm Light Meter

The Hydrofarm Light Intensity Meter is a pocket-sized, portable, light sensitive instrument capable of reading illumination up to 5000 footcandles (lumens per square foot). 

The output of HID bulbs diminishes gradually over time with use, but the human eye cannot discern this reduced output. Therefore, it is important that users have a way to measure the ongoing footcandle readings from their lamp, in order to know when its output has declined to the point where replacement is recommended. That is where the Hydrofarm Light Intensity Meter comes in - it gives the indoor gardener an effective way of checking light output throughout the bulb's life.
