Enjoy! I will be doing more accurate tests in the near future, as well as testing the Umol readings on a 5x5 area, and checking the par readings within this square to show the footprint vs Umol. I also do plan on testing my 400w Ceramic Metal Halides as well as my 600w Ushio HPS. Hope you all enjoy!

Would like to see the coverage results too.
I plan to buy an apogee soon. I am going to place a white paper and mount the light 12 inches over it and then try to mark the circle where i get 500 umoles or more, circle of 250 u moles and the max umoles at center.

I plan on doing the same thing, doing measurements in 1', 2', 3', and 4' squares at each of the corners and middle to show the footprint vs umol at different heights. I just need to find the space where I can do these tests as well as a method of hanging the lights when I do them.
