## Description

Product Description The Extech LT40 LED light meter is useful for measuring and optimizing environmental light levels in a wide range of environments, including office buildings, manufacturing plants and warehouses, university campuses, schools, hospitals, and many other locations. As OSHA regulates workplace lighting, light meters such at the LT40 can verify regulatory compliance, as well as state and local public safety codes and ordinances. The LT40 can also measure standard light sources such as fluorescent, metal halide, high pressure sodium, and incandescent lighting, up to 400,000 lux (40,000 Fc). The LT40 comes with a built-in sensor with protective cover, 2 AAA batteries, storage pouch, and user manual. Box Contains The LT40 comes with a built-in sensor with protective cover, two AAA batteries, storage pouch, and user manual.

Review: Extech LT40 - Sturdy and reliable little light meter. Has become my reference light meter. Switches off automatically after 12 seconds but you can override this by pushing on the on/off button for 5 seconds. Automatic ranging very handy. Does not remember your preferences like in my case I am interested in the maximum value during a session so I have to remember to push the max button each time. Struggles in low light less than 5 lux due to the smallness of the sensor, so you cannot measure moon light.
Review: The only lihgt meter with all that we we're looking for. We love the options and different light bulb settings that are programmed into this meter.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this item come with calibration certificate?**
A: Hello Antonio - there isn't a calibration certificate. Based on the various tests I've done the results make sense  and the machine is highly responsive. This isn't what I would regard as a precision instrument, but for my purposes g it worked fine.

**Q: Does this product come with a warranty?**
A: Hello, Thanks for your question, yes, the meter has a 2-year warranty, If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our tech support line at 866-477-3687 option 3

**Q: With the lt45 what light source setting should be used with fluorescent and sodium lights as the manual only lists incandescent and led's?...**
A: Hi, thanks for your question, there are 10 light source selections (L0 – L9) each having a unique calibration correction factor
(multiplier). See the Light Source list below. The multipliers for locations L0 through L6 are fixed
for the lighting types listed. Locations L7 through L9 are extra locations that the user can
customize (with a multiplier from 0.001 to 1.999).
L0: Standard incandescent light source
L1: LED white daylight
L2: LED AMBER (YELLOW) light
L3: LED GREEN light
L4: LED RED light
L5: LED BLUE light
L6: Not used
L7~L9: Programmable User Custom Locations (preset to 1.00) if you have any questions, feel free to contact our technical support line at 866-477-3687 option 3

**Q: Does this perform well in very bright conditions ( very sunny conditions) and in now light conditions?**
A: I feel that the Extech LT40 LED does respond fairly well in very bright conditions. As I see it, the meter is designed to read environmental conditions, such as light coming into a building or space, or even on the exterior. If you need to read just the solar conditions (visible light) in an unobstructed open space or area there are better, but often higher priced, meters for that purpose. Nick M

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by D***R on 13 September 2015*

For the price, works great. Purchased this for use in acquiring night light meter readings on roadways. It allows for lux or foot candle measurements. The instruction manual covers the quirky min/max average function. Otherwise, it did a great job on the jobsite. The included bag provides for good storage and the device is sturdy and works good in a commercial environment. The only issue is there is no back light, which made night readings a little difficult. The fact that the light meter was integrated into the device meant there was no additional wires to manage.
