Recently set one of these up in my tent and have been playing with it for a week or so. It wasn’t something I needed but I was primarily driven by the desire to be able to obtain some decent light intensity readings. Up until now I had been using the Photone app on apple devices (phone and pad always gave consistent readings)
So, after a week of Pulse Pro readings, here’s what I’ve found. The ppfd readings on the Pulse are generally within 10 points of the Photone app.
I don’t know if that means they are both semi-accurate or if that means they both semi-suck. I only know I haven’t learned much, other than if I really wanted a light meter I should’ve just bought an Apogee. My human nature wanted the Pulse to give me a different #, because it cost so much more it has to be better …
The Pulse obviously does a lot more than ppfd readings, so I’m not disappointed in the whole purchase, but this a bit of a bummer. Anybody else with experience here?
