I have been using a Mastech LX-1330B for the past 3 years and it has not let me down yet. The price has deffinately come down since I got mine.

thanks Ted, that one seem to run around 50-60$ and around 24$ to ship to Canada which is why I was looking at the ones on the eBay page :biggrin:
Anyone have anything good or bad to say about those? :tapfoot: ;)

Here's one that might be a little bit more to your liking.

thanks Ted, I got one, it looks pretty good and it has a bigger range than the first ones I had listed too! :bowing
I'm dying to see what my lighting is like, I always found my house to be dark even though I have large windows on 3 sides so I guess I'll finally know for sure :biggrin:

The feature that I really like about it is the extended range. I my area I have measured full sunlight at 12,000 foot-candles which gave me a better idea of what type of shading was needed instead of the meter just giving an out of range indication.
