It's being sent to Pt. Roberts so I'm doing my own brokering service.

why didn't you guys just order from Apogee. Sorry I didn't see this in time to save you some money.

you could have got this http://www.apogee-inst.com/quantumsensor_specsheets.htm

all you need is a digital multimeter, which I am sure several people have. I have been using the older version of this one for 7 years now.

After a nice circuit around the entire continental US courtesy UPS, the PAR meter has finally arrived at Point Bob. Will be heading down there tomorrow to pick up.

I'll be posting pix of it in action soon!

So it's here now and it's making the rounds to the various people who will be paying for it. Anthony has it at present and I understand that he's seeing Chin and TomR on Friday. I'll be pretty busy in the coming weeks so I'm not sure when we can get the meter around to everyone. I'm hoping we can all post our results to the same thread to create an informal database of sorts:

As far as the $ is concerned, Anthony has agreed to be my muscle and chief shin kicker

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone who agreed to chip in at the Reef Network frag auction in February! Hopefully, we can now settle those disputes that crop up every so often about which type of lighting or which bulb is "better" and other lighting quandries.
