p.1 #1 · Light meter repair?

I have an old polaris light meter that works fine except for the white bulb that goes over the sensor is broken. Does anyboy know how/where I can go to get it repaired?

If the dome is removable, you can probably just order the part.

All I see online is a optional flat diffuser attachment will quickly turn the Polaris meter into a Ratio measurement meter or Illuminance (Lux) meter.

Im not sure what that does?

The flat diffuser is good for measuring the relative brightness of lights without picking up other lights. You'll want the dome. Do you have an address or e-mail address for the manufacturer? I'm not familiar with them.
