Been looking for par information for an XR15 Pro for a while. Got the PAR meter from the Reef Club and got it myself. The following table is from a JBJ Nano 28 gallon, 18" T X 22"W X 32" D. The light is mounted on the RMS (9" above water) with the 80 degree lens and set at 70%. All readings were taken from about the middle of the tank below the light. Also locations E,F,G, and H are the corners of the tank at sand level. Hopefully you can read my handwriting.

Started burning stuff with the 80 lens, took some good advice and switched back to the 120 lens. Here's a comparison of the PAR generated between the 2.

Awesome comparison.. Thank you for posting this! i have been curious how much of a difference in par there was from the 2 lens's
 
No prob, here is a cleaner version of the chart... I've added a bunch of SPS since this pic, tank is doing FANTASTIC under this light on the 120 lens.
