    Good par meter for the price
    The par meter is easy to use and i like that it measures the different colors of light. Compared to other aquarium meter prices it is a great value. I did not try to save previous readings or even set the date but it gives me an easy to read par quickly which it what i need. You can plug it in but i just use the included batteries. The back lit screen and large display are really nice features. The pole handle telescopes about three feed and makes getting a reading on the bottom of the tank easy. i do not have another meter to compare how accurate it is with but In my opinion its a nice par meter with several nice features.

    This PAR meter is easy to setup and use right out of the box. It has many features for data collection which a hobbyist may not utilize but regardless the main function, taking PAR measurements, seem accurate. It is very sensitive to minor changes such as the effect water ripples have on transmitted light. Perfectly still water is necessary to get a good reading.

    The meter has a nice bright display although the backlight shuts off too quickly. This was probably to save battery life (3 x AAA)

    The telescoping pole is a disaster. It quickly fills with water and simple hydraulic pressure from movement of the rod will cause water to exit the top of the pole often landing on the floor. A solid rod would be better for underwater. I understand that the manufacturer wanted this to be portable but this flaw causes a lot of consternation. Perhaps hinged or socketed, solid fiberglass rod sections would be a better choice in design. I made one myself and ditched the telescoping rod. For this flaw, I docked 1 star.

    **Edit**

    VBR has changed the sensor to a more opaque version. This new version reads lower than the sensor I have. Check the pic with two sensors. If you receive your meter with the sensor that looks like the one on top, multiply your readings by 1.17. That will get you Apogee-aligned results. If you have the sensor on the bottom, do not use the multiplier.

    The VBR-Aqua matches the readings of the significantly more expensive Apogee 500-series PAR meters and it does so for much less money. If considering the PARwise (reads 20% low), the Apogee (expensive), or the VBR, consider the VBR your #1. It really is that good.

    Stop sending them back after using them! Keep it and share it with your reefing friends.

    Word of caution...I would not use the telescoping rod. You don't know what's going to live inside the telescoping sections. Get yourself an acrylic rod.

    I paid full price. This is an unsponsored review.

    I am already aware of it will off a bit of par number. At least I know this par device can read the number at right now. For example: hammer corals can go up to 150 during water movement by waves and this meter can reads 120-145 par. So around 150par and Goniopora on the sand bag reads 55par and it requires 70par something like that. So I can boost up intensity otherwise without this par meter, my lights was dark and kept changing lights before and now my lights stable and know my par. Good device and great price 👍.

    Bought this item and it was used ! Not new . It had salt residue all over it and the packing and batteries were already installed! Not happy at all !
    Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2023
    It works great. I don’t have anyway to check the accuracy but I had guessed my lighting at 150 and I was right. Been into saltwater since the 70’s and reefing probably 25 years. Even if it has a plus and minus of ten it’s good to know I’m close. Didn’t want to rent one because I’m using a ten year old Kessil A350W and I want to replace it soon with a A360X and a controller. It’s nice to have my own Par Meter.

    Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
    Le VBR-Aqua PAR Mètre est un outil bien pratique pour maîtriser l'art de l'éclairage de notre aquarium. Avant son utilisation, je ne pouvais pas connaître le ratio idéal rouge/bleu pour la croissance des plantes. Cet appareil m'a permis de le mesurer et de l'ajuster finement, favorisant ainsi des conditions optimales.
    Facile à utiliser, il suffit de placer le capteur étanche sous l'eau et de lire les valeurs PAR sur l'écran LCD. Son manche télescopique permet d'accéder à tous les recoins de l'aquarium.
    J'apprécie également sa fonction d'enregistrement des données, qui me permet de suivre l'évolution de l'éclairage au fil du temps.
    Polyvalent, le VBR-Aqua PAR Mètre peut être utilisé aussi bien en eau douce qu'en eau marine.
    Malgré un léger défaut - le manche télescopique se remplit d'eau - cet outil reste un investissement judicieux.
    Je le recommande donc à tous les aquariophiles soucieux d'offrir à leurs plantes un éclairage adapté à leurs besoins.
