Hi all!
I've been reading and benefitting from this AMAZING forum for over 5 years now, but this is my first time posting! I'll introduce my 13 yr old beardie, Velcro soon and share his story. But for the moment, in case anyone is looking to buy a Solarmeter, I wanted to share the great prices I just found on Amazon for the 6.5 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GT4EQYG/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
and 6.5r
https://www.amazon.com/Solarmeter-M...r+6.5r&qid=1572299560&s=amazon-devices&sr=8-1
This is Amazon US, but there may be similar savings on Amazon sites for other countries as well. I glanced at prices for the 6.2 & 6.2r, but if I recall, they didn't seem to be as good of a deal currently.
I usually only buy sensitive equipment directly from the manufacturer, if they offer it, but the difference between $256 ($249 + $7 shipping) from Solarmeter's website, and $189 + free shipping on Amazon for the 6.5 was just too good to pass up. I wanted to be sure, though, that the same warranty applies, that they weren't re-packaged by Amazon, weren't "seconds," et cet. So I called Solar Light directly, and was assured that they stock Amazon's warehouses themselves and ship from there as well. Same people, same exact product, same warrany, everything!
I was going to get the 6.5r ($203) with the cute reptile graphics and handy Ferguson Zone chart on it but since it's otherwise the same exact meter I opted to save the extra $14 and put that toward some BSFL for my old "baby" lol.
If the prices on Amazon are already common knowledge, please forgive me. I was just so excited I had to share. I can't wait to get it! No more guessing/stressing when it comes to trying to provide a safe and optimal amount of uvb for my lil' guy!
Take care all
