IMPORTANT
Proper lighting is essential in both industrial and office environments to enhance productivity and safety. Note: 1 Foot-Candle equals approximately 10.7639 Lux and 1 Lux equals about 0.0929 Foot-Candles. This chart may not cover all scenarios, so it’s wise to consult local lighting regulations as needed.
180° Rotating Probe & 2.25″ Backlit LCD: The TopTes TS-710 Light Meter features a rotating sensor for accurate readings from various angles. With a fast response rate, it measures every 0.5 seconds, ensuring continuous data capture. The 2.25-inch backlit LCD makes it easy to read even in dim lighting.
LUX/FC Measurement Units: The TopTes TS-710 can measure from 0.1 to 200,000 Lux and 0.1 to 20,000 Foot Candles with an accuracy of 3% of the reading plus 5 digits. Use this light meter to determine the optimal lighting for plant growth.
Versatile Usage: This lumen meter is suitable for a range of visible light sources including LED grow lights, fluorescent lamps, metal halides, high-pressure sodium lamps, and incandescent bulbs. It’s great for homes, schools, offices, workshops, stages, farms, and factories. Easily identify issues like dim car headlights or uneven LED lighting in your home.
Multi-Functional Design: The TS-710 also measures ambient temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit, adapts over time, and features memory for maximum and minimum values. It automatically shuts off after 10 minutes of inactivity and has a low battery indicator to notify you when it’s time for a battery change.
Contents Include: TS-710 digital light meter with a sensor cover, soft case, three AAA batteries, and a user manual.
Customers have praised the light meter for its functionality, including its performance in direct sunlight. Many reviews commend its accuracy, build quality, and user-friendliness. The inclusion of an operation manual is appreciated, and the device effectively measures both Lux and foot-candles. A notable feature is the rotating measurement head, which enhances usability.

Great Device
Very straightforward device I have adored incorporating into my plant collection care routine. It allows me to ensure each of my plants can be provided realistic indoor lighting conditions as they would in their natural habitat. Overall it has significantly improved my understanding of the element of light dispersion and absorption for my collection within different areas of my apartment.

Good product
I bought this to test lighting in an office building for emergency egressThe product worked great and seemed to be very accurateI only wish that it came with a stick or a way to attach a stick as the Fire Department requires the reading to be taken 1 foot off the finished floor and it was quite hard trying to take the reading through out a 25,000 sq foot space

TopTes TS-710 Light Meter First Impressions
I received the TopTes TS-710 Light Meter yesterday and unboxed this morning. It comes with Operation Manual and a Protective Cover for Sensor. The buttons were fairly intuitive so I switched to Lux to test it out. The back-lighting is also nice and I like the rotating sensor. I placed my phone with Light Sensor App next to this dedicated sensor and pointed in same direction. My phone light sensor would jump around while the TopTes settled into a reading. I then tested a couple LED bulbs with the TopTes and it worked great. My ultimate test is to measure my LED lights strung around my pool enclosure because neighbor complained so I put them on a Dimmer but want to obtain some Foot-Candle Measurements.Update: I’ve measured the Foot-Candles at my Property boundary (next to my Neighbor) and it measured 0.3 Foot-Candles with No LED Dimming and 0.1 Foot-Candles with LED Dimmer set to 50%. The Florida Statutes aren’t very clear in this area but I did see mention of 0.2 Foot-Candles maximum at the Property boundary so I’m now compliant and will leave my Dimmer set to 50%. I also used the TopTest TS-710 Light Meter to gauge the Lumens for each 1 Watt LED bulb; at full intensity (no Dimming), they were spec’ed at 80 Lumens. I measured 82 Lux (Lumens) straight out but this fell off going towards top and bottom of bulbs. Hence, the actual Luminosity of these 1W LED Bulbs is probably more on the order of 40-60 Lumens (a measure of total light emitted in a sphere around the bulb). Great Light Meter and very pleased.

Temp, Humidity suck, Lux makes numbers
I don’t need temp or humidity and they were both ways off (10C and 10%). I want to measure relative flux, so accuracy isn’t important. I’m retired so absolution calibration standards are no longer available to me. So far, I like the instrument for what I use it for. LUX is a funny thing since it’s human vision weighted. Everyones filters are different so every LUX meter is different.

Useful and Acccurate
I used the light meter to lay out lighting for my woodshop. Using the meter, I was able to even out the amount of light at table level throughout the shop.

Worked for two months
Quit working after 2 months, wouldn’t recommend
M. Thuot –
Works over a wide range of light.
This Toptes TS-710 incident light meter works well from ~1000 lux down to 0.1 lux in my application. It also worked in direct sunlight. The rotating measurement head was very useful in avoiding shadows disrupting a reading. A very useful tool.
Stephie –
Nice bit of kit, does what its supposed to do without complication. Its quite useful having the temp and humidity readings too.
ERNESTO FRANCHINI –
Strumento molto maneggevole, ergonomico alimentato da ben tre batterie AAA per una maggiore autonomia, Controllato con luxmetro di precisione, posso dire che ilTop Tes 710 è sicuramente ben entro i limiti previsti. Ottima la retroilluminazione che ne facilita l’uso ed è pure estremamente pratica la testina rotante. Concludendo ritengo che questo strumento sia altamente da consigliare, anche in relazione al prezzo estremamente conveniente, che lo pone ben al di sopra delle aspettative.Ernesto Franchini.
