Milwaukee MW700 Lux Meter

The Milwaukee MW700 is a portable Lux meter designed to perform light measurements. It is supplied with a light sensor connected to the meter via a cable. The MW700 can measure from 0 to 50000 Lux. With the MW700 it is very easy to see if e.g. there is enough light to grow plants or to work safely.

Average indoor lighting ranges from 100 to 1000 Lux and average sunlight is about 50000 Lux. Lux is a unit that indicates the density of light that falls on a surface.
