    Default PAR vs. LUX meter

    Content provider comes up with conversion factor from the free android app, Lux Meter...


    0.015

    Can anyone with an actual par meter confirm this?

    Effective systems are much better than goals. Don't believe me, watch the NHL playoffs!

    I would imagine it would rely on calibration of the android device to be accurate?

    No, I can't confirm that but I do use A par meter now to adjust my light heights during growth, from seedlings to Flowering stage, instead of just going by the light adjustment recomended.

    I'd never stick a defined bandwidth on the numbers... but, on average, they'll be close enough

    I presume it's 18/6 veg and 12/12 flower.
