I thought it would be cool to buy a light meter to compare the various lights I will be aquiring. According to what I found on the CPF, the Meterman LM631 was the one to get - especially since they were offering a free digital multimeter in the deal.
It arrived today. The operating instructions were virtually nill. Regardless, I managed to turn it on to the "Lux" scale, and I experimented until I figured out how to set the "range". (At least I think I figured it out.)
It measured room light OK, but when I placed an ARC LSH-P in front of it, it went into "OL" (overload).
I called Circuit Specialists and talked to the techy. He said that I couldn't get that close with a flashlight. He gave me an RMA number to return it, but I don't want to return it if someone can explain to me how to use it.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
