This product is a great idea, and it works very well. Simply place the calculator outside in the early morning, and later that day you can see about how many hours of sun that particular spot has. You no longer have to guess when buying plants for your yard.

This is a lot easier to use than many of the other garden light meters, because you just plonk it in the soil and it does the readings for you----the other light meters, you have to take 6+ readings and then average them for a light reading, which is time consuming and a hassle. This little buddy is super duper!

This review is from: Luster Leaf 1875 Rapitest Suncalc Sunlight Calculator (Lawn & Patio)

This produce does NOT work for houseplants! I placed it under my grow light system to verify its accuracy (my African violets thrive there and they need lots of light). After 24 hours the unit registered "full shade" which just isn't accurate, at least for indoors.
