Just curious if anyone has used photone or another cheaper lux/par meter to measure the par of an LED and T5 combo. I am about to add two t5 bulbs to supplement my two kessil leds on my tank and i’m not sure how that process would work. Seems like the kelvin of ATI T5’s are higher than any option on the photone app.

Looks like no one has experience with this. I emailed the owners of the app and they have ordered some ATI T5 bulbs for the purpose of testing.
