Seneye ???

[Eric23]

I've been thinking about picking up a par meter and after watching the Bulk Reef Supply videos it seems like the seneye is accurate enough to get a basic idea of what I have in my tanks. The biotek par meter is about the same price but the seneye will measure temperature pH and ammonia as well.. I'm just curious to know if anyone has experience with it ? I haven't seen a ton of reviews..

I use it, but only for par readings.
Accurate and consistent enough for our needs for sure.

i use them, they are a nice tool

I use one purely for the PAR meter, the rest is useless. Works well.

Only gripe is that they changed it so you HAVE to have a new slide inserted to be able to use the other features. Before the app you could use the old one as long as you liked even if it wasn't 100% accurate.

Hi Everyone,
We now sponsor R2R so if you have any questions please come to our forum at AQD_Seneye here or just drop me a line at [email protected] We also have a number of excellent R2R sponsors carrying Seneye including Premium Aquatics and Saltwater Aquarium and Marine Depot, lots of places to purchase from now!

In regards to slide replacement, Seneye is a huge advocate of accuracy, the devices are designed to be able to provide critical alerts to parameters that could crash your tank or kill your fish if were to get out of control so to have accuracy is key, this is achieved by the reference slides being replaced once a month. Hope that helps.

I have one on my tank , and I love it , I use it for ph and leak detector as well as temp .. and of course the par meter !! Very happy with mine .. can highly recommend one !!

 

[Eric23]

Agreed I really like my seneye I initially bought it for the par meter but I love being able to check the temp in my tank while I'm at work and since I have a calcium reactor set up it's nice to keep an eye on pH as well.

They are great just make sure to turn your flow off...
Took my readings today actually...

Are you saying that the slide replacement now is mandatory for reading temp and par ?

I believe the slides are for the ph and ammonia, you don’t need one for the par meter !

Yes this is correct, if you do not want pH and Ammonia then you dont need a slide. The unit then becomes one of the most accurate underwater light meters on the market today for $199.00 !!!

Yes that was my understanding too , but connecting @Bronx19 and @AQD-Seneye response , i was getting the feeling the chip is mandatory for other readings - i hope not - cos i just got a second one only for my refugium to do some extra automation

No it is not required, if you do not want the critical fish saving features then you dont need the slides The slides are reference units to keep the pH and Ammonia readings accurate over a 30 day period, the slide has no use in both Temp and light meter and as such not required.
