Anyone uses this tool?

And if so, how would you rate the accuracy? I can't seem to find the sweet spot for sps tank.

Cool tool. I have not seen it before but may use it in the future. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, no radion users has seen or used this tool? Can someone echotech at least give me an opinion if the tool is relatively accurate?

Pretty neat to have a guesstimate of the par. The suggested corals look a bit off to me. I still look for shade or a bright sport that makes the coral pop!

I don't know about the accuracy, but it sure looks interesting. I'm curious to see if it gets updated to G4 Pros.

Pretty cool, thanks!

I especially like the power consumption information. I peak at around 38%, and that works out to 18 watts per radion so 72 watts total in my case. Sweet!

Well guys I'm sorry to say I decided to ditch the the idea of buying a second radion and keep guessing the light output. I went full T5's. I figure if I post here I would at least get an opinion but no such luck. Hope this tool helps you and hope you guys have better luck than I did.

BRS did a few videos testing the PAR of the radions. Have a look, maybe that will help.
