UV light monitor

[JRM71085]

Does anyone know of any good sites that sell UV light monitors so I can check the strenght of these lights?

A good UV meter will run $100+ but I have seen one go for $25, it has iffy reviews it seems to work...at first then die 2 months later.

Thanks can anyone tell me about them how they work and everything?

they are a little hand held box with a sensor at the top and a button in the middle, you push the button and aim it at the uvb light and it displays a number...higher the number the more uvb
there are afew ways to use it ie, checking the uvb levels at the basking site and or checking all your bulbs in a controlled test to see how well they are working.
