   We have one and I've tested it side by side with the club PAR meter and they are very close once you adjust the apoge for LEDs (I forget the formula but I know @beckerj3 Will know).
   
   I did have issues getting the software installed initially but once past that it works well. Biggest drawback is having to tote my laptop around while using it.

   The adjustment is PAR reading * 1.32
   
   So if you got a reading of 200. The true PAR would be 264
