  • DR BRUCE BUGBEE: Apogee PAR meters have been designed and refined by Dr. Bruce Bugbee, a world-famous crop physiologist
  • FEATURES: The rugged detector measures photosynthetic photons from 400-700 nm from any light source by taking instantaneous or logged measurements.
  • RUGGED DESIGN: The sensor head is made of machined aluminum and fully potted, making it waterproof and rugged. The tangle-free cable facilitates measurements over a large plant canopy, while still allowing the user to view the high-contract display screen.
  • AM-330 TELESCOPIC SENSOR WAND: (bundled with meter) wand extends up to 36.25” (92cm), as measured from the end of the handle to the center of the mount making it ideal for reaching above plant canopies or other hard-to-reach locations
  • MANUFACTURED IN THE USA: All meters are backed by our four-year warranty and supported by our US-based customer support team.

Under pure 660nm LED grow light, MQ-500(569USD), VBR-100 PAR Meter(57USD), and Everfine(1200USD) are almost the same, but DANOPLUS DP-355 are 10% higher. I wonder why DANOPLUS DP-355 has 300+ sales monthly?

lead plant scientist for Utah state university and for NASA space plant experiments. I was excited to buy this piece of kit till I received it. Since I have no other par meter than a phone app to compare, this review isn't about testing it but value for you money. The light sensor is the heart of the system. So far it seems more responsive to PAR than other light meters. Theres 1-2 stars Bruce. Then it falls straight on its face for build quality. I'll start from the outside and work my way in. Soft case? Are you kidding Bruce? This is a sensitive piece of electronic equipment. Or you have us thinking so due to you vids. Softcase? Get real in protection. Build of the box/display. Absolutely 6th grade quality. Yes i opened it. Cold solder joints! Shame on you. My neighbor kid could find a better enclosure at 1/3 your price and 3 times your build quality. And solder better than this device.All said,with Apogee, I expect readings to be accurate hence the purchase.Should I find later, the meter is inaccurate, I will update this review to a more negative. At this time, 4 stars for presumed accuracy based solely on the light sensor chosen.

I've owned this for about a year now. Seems to be accurate (I have no control test). Seems to hold true. Good product!
