Solar power meter for radiation testing
The TeKit SM206 is a digital solar power meter designed for solar radiation measurement, research, physical and optical experiments, meteorology, and agriculture. It also measures glass light intensity to verify glass properties such as vehicle window transmission. The meter operates on a 9V battery and provides selectable readouts in W/m² or Btu/(ft²·h). It is not suited for users who require wireless data logging or PC connectivity.
Measurement ranges with data and peak hold
The instrument covers two ranges: 0.1 to 399.9 and 1 to 3999 W/m², with matching Btu ranges. Resolution is 0.1 for both units. Accuracy is specified as ±10 W/m² or ±3 Btu/(ft²·h) or ±5% of reading at 25°C. Data hold and peak hold functions capture steady or maximum values. Buyers needing higher irradiance ranges or spectral analysis will find the range limits restrictive.
Handheld operation with basic indicators
The meter measures 60 by 132 by 38 mm and runs on a single 9V 6F22 battery, which is not included. Response time is 0.25 seconds. Overload and low-battery indications alert the user during extended sessions. Temperature coefficient is ±0.38 W/m²/°C and ±0.12 Btu/(ft²·h)/°C. No active cooling or fan is present, so thermal management is passive.

Questions about this item
Will the SM206 work with my existing 9 V battery from another meter?
The meter needs a single 9 V 6F22 cell which is not supplied in the box, so any standard 9 V battery you already own will power it.
How can I confirm the SM206 is reading correctly once I switch it on?
The display shows overload and low-battery indicators; with a fresh 9 V cell and no overload symbol the meter is operating within its stated accuracy.
What comes in the package and what must I purchase separately?
The box contains the SM206 solar power meter and a manual; a 9 V 6F22 battery is required but not included.
