I would be down as well! It would be cool to be able to measure the light on our builds and compare notes. As far as the shipping concerns of handling. We could agree to use a specific flat rate box from USPS. That would lock in shipping cost as well as provide more protection than those padded envelopes. Just a thought...

Funny that you mention this because I was literally thinking if such a thing existed and then went on to thinking I could just buy the SP-420 for $300 and then sell it on eBay after I'm done for the same amount, maybe even slightly more if I'm willing to wait. I think the final cost would end up being about $40.

I'm tempted at your $20/wk offer but at the same time the SP 420 has a USB output which lets you use their ApogeeConnect software with setting/profiles that you can use to make measurements of LED's more accurate.
