Those of you with Radions, which intensity numbers are you using as your "intensity"? In the AB template, intensity shows a little more than half of what the slider says. Measuring PAR with the Seneye shows pretty low par numbers right under the lights at about 9 inches when the slider is set to 40%. The actual bubble at max ramp for 40% shows around 18 or 20 % intensity.

Just concerned my Seneye is way off considering what others appear to get with their radions at 40%.

Gen 4 XR30s. I assume what shows up on the actual spectrum graph is the "relative" intensity based on individual LED output?

Just seeing which intensity value most people are considering in their posts. My PAR seems low if I use the slider value
