He is not using a par meter, also only some consumer grade low cost par meter have that issue.
The bottom line is that a 90w Kessil is not a replacement of a 250w metal halide lamp as their efficiency are similar.

Actually that had been fixed.
Apogee released the SQ/MQ-500 and the SQ-420 sensors which fix the issues and anyone with the older type can upgrade for a cost.
Not saying he didn't use a older one but letting people know the problem is fixed with newer models.
