Measuring PAR...

So the local club has a PAR meter and I have it for a little bit and just started measuring things. very interesting results...

So the LED light I'm using under my stand to see what I am doing puts out 1500 PAR 1" under, my 250w MH with 5 month old bulbs are putting out 1012 PAR 1" under...

So its got me thinking of getting a few of these GE LED food lights over my frag tank, yes they are 6500k, but with a few blue LEDs the color would be fine. 4x 12w bulbs is much cheaper, last longer, and run cooler then a 250w MH...

Very interested to see the growth rates... :beer:
