Your UV Meter

[Ellron]

What UV Meter are you guys using. I'm looking into getting one with a low price point.
HAWK Ultraviolet Sunlight Meter
SolarTech
Those are nice, how to do they look to you guys?
The second one is a bit expensive though...

We use the Solarmeter 6.2 and it was a bit expensive but to be honest I doubt that anything that cheap would work.

Alright, thanks.

Go with the Solarmeter 6.2. That's the one I use also. http://www.uvguide.co.uk/usinguvmeter.htm

Alright, and is the normal 5.0 UVB light read "5.0" on the meter?

Im using a Solar Meter 6.2 as well, great investment, this thing have helped me save a ton of money on UVB lamps, I dont have to guess anymore. Some times and I repeat, some times, lamps can go longer than 6 months where if you dont have a meter it's just safer to change them.
