About this item
LI-COR LI-250A LIGHT METER WITH QUANTUM SENSOR - COMPLETE KIT
The LI-250A is the handheld readout that LI-COR built for its own line of light sensors, and it is the instrument most horticulture lighting specs, university trials and grow-room commissioning reports are written against. Unlike consumer "PAR meters," a LI-COR quantum sensor is individually calibrated and traceable, which is why it is the reference other meters get checked with.
WHAT IS INCLUDED (per photos)
- LI-COR LI-250A light meter (Quantum / Radiometer / Photometer)
- Quantum sensor with cable and BNC-style connector
- Sensor leveling / mounting clip
- SUKOA padded carry case with shoulder strap
- Original LI-250A instruction manual
CAPABILITIES
- Direct readout of instantaneous light level or a 15-second average
- HOLD, AVG, MULT SELECT and UNITS functions
- Accepts any LI-COR light sensor with a BNC connector - quantum (PAR), pyranometer or photometric - so one meter covers PPFD, solar radiation and lux/foot-candle work
- Battery powered, pocket-sized, field ready
WHO BUYS THIS
Greenhouse and vertical farm operators verifying PPFD maps and light uniformity; lighting manufacturers and integrators commissioning installs; universities, extension programs and research stations; consultants who need a defensible number rather than a phone app estimate.
CONDITION
Used. Cosmetically good with light handling marks; display film still present on the meter face. Functionality has NOT been bench-tested and calibration status is unknown - LI-COR recommends sensor recalibration every two years. Sensor model number was not recorded; buyer should verify the exact sensor at inspection if a specific model is required. Sold as-is with no warranty.
VALUE REFERENCE
LI-COR lists the LI-250A meter at $880 and LI-190R quantum sensors from $500, putting a comparable new kit around $1,380 before calibration.
