The Latest From Milwaukee Instruments

Milwaukee Instruments has always made top notch tools for aquarium hobbyists and their latest are no exception. The recently available MA887 digital refractometer is accurate within .002 on SG and can measure from 3 different scales. And their new MW700 Lux Meter has a waterproof probe now so you can take measurements from the bottom of your tank where it matters the most. Seeing all of Milwaukee's tools on display recently, this 3reefer wanted to throw them all in a sack, but for now I will have to be content with the attached PDF and start savings some nickels. As usual, great stuff from our friends in NC. More details inside thread.

MW700 waterproof LUX meter -- Milwaukee Instruments offers the only LUX meter in the world with a sensor probe designed to drop into a tank and measure the light LUX at the bottom of a tank where it matters most. The idea is to take a measurement with a new set of bulbs and then take measurements ever 30 days to check the degradation of the light bulb sets intensity. At about 20% to 25% degradation the bulb set should be replaced. This meter is the only way to take that test accurately.

As weird as it sounds, they are not based in Wisconsin, but in North Carolina.

I wish they would make a PAR meter like the new LUX meter they make.
