Hi

I there a way for me to test my D11.2 using a regular photographic light meter? I just got my D11.2 and I want to see what kind of light I'm getting OTF.

Also, how do I test for parasitic drain?

Thanks for your help

To measure light output you really need a calibrated integrating sphere. With a lightmeter you can only measure Lux (i.e. brightness at a point) rather than Lumens (total output).

Parasitic drain is easier - shove a battery in it and leave for a few weeks to see if it gets drained or not. Nitecore specify three years, so you might have to wait a while !
