Borrow a Light Meter

[TonyD]

Does anyone have a light meter I can borrow? I want to measure the
light intensity from my LED fiber optic thingy

thanks
Tony

I have a very old photography one but I don't think it will do a good
job of measuring light from LEDs. I will dig it out. It might be a
week and a bit before I can get it across.

Also in completely different news I have a 6 way instead of my 4 way
that I have clearly picked up by mistake at Maker Space. I think it is
Brian's but either way I will return it soon.

Thanks for the offer Alistair. Just in case Alistair's meter is too
old to measure light from a LED, does anyone else have a light meter
they could bring this Saturday?

I dropped my meter in my box on route today. I still have doubts it will do what you need but it is working. It is a little thing with a black mock leather cover. You can't miss it.

That's a description of most photographical equipment in my opinion. :) 'Small thing in mock leather case' just missing the fastener description 'Velcro/Press stud'.

[Alistair MacDonald]

Press stud. :-)

Tony,

if the RGB LED unit you are using doesn't kick out enough lumens, check out these

I like how it clarifies NOT cree :) Must have got sick of the enquiries.

[Cay Green]

Sorry, couldn't get key to the cupboard so no light meter. C

[Glen Beestone]

you often see this in Ebay descriptions. helps them get more search hits. i.e anyone searching for Cree
