EvoDevice Product Selection Guide

Choose by what you need to measure.

EvoDevice products cover different measurement and monitoring jobs. Start with the question you are trying to answer, then choose the tool designed for that job.

Plants & outdoor

EVO10 vs EVO-20 vs EVO-Solar

These three products may all be used outdoors, but they answer different questions. Choose based on whether your main concern is soil/root-zone conditions, plant-light exposure over a day, or solar irradiance and accumulated solar energy.

Choose EVO10 when soil conditions matter.

EVO10 is the choice when you want soil moisture and root-zone temperature together with plant-light information such as Daily Light Integral.

Best fit: plant and soil monitoring where root-zone conditions are part of the decision.

Choose EVO-20 when DLI is the main question.

EVO-20 is the more focused choice when you primarily want to measure Daily Light Integral and understand how much plant-relevant light accumulates across the day.

Best fit: dedicated DLI measurement without making soil monitoring the center of the workflow.

Choose EVO-Solar for solar resource measurement.

EVO-Solar is for solar irradiance and accumulated solar energy rather than plant-specific DLI or soil conditions.

Best fit: measuring instantaneous solar irradiance in W/m² and accumulated energy in kWh/m².

DLI meter or solar irradiance meter?

DLI describes plant-relevant light accumulated across a day. Solar irradiance describes solar power per unit area at a moment in time, while accumulated solar energy integrates that solar exposure over time.

Rule of thumb: choose EVO-20 for DLI; choose EVO-Solar for W/m² and kWh/m².
Light & UV

E130 vs E-ABI

These products measure different parts of the optical spectrum and should not be treated as interchangeable.

Question E130 E-ABI
Main use White-light measurement UV measurement
Lux Yes Not the main purpose
CCT Yes Not the main purpose
Spectral distribution Supported phosphor-converted white LEDs Not positioned as a white-light spectrum meter
UVI / UVA / UVB Not the UV-focused choice Yes
Typical selection Choose for white LED Lux, CCT and supported spectral distribution Choose for reptile/basking-zone UV checks with UVI, UVA and UVB
Simple choice: choose E130 for white-light measurement; choose E-ABI for UV measurement.
Vehicle air quality

Choose EVO-CO2V when the question is cabin CO₂.

EVO-CO2V is designed for in-vehicle carbon-dioxide monitoring using compatible 12V/24V vehicle accessory power.

What it does not replace

A CO₂ monitor does not detect carbon monoxide (CO). EVO-CO2V is not a replacement for a certified carbon-monoxide alarm.

Power & surge protection

WFSPD2ULTRA vs ALSPD2CORE

Both are panel-mounted whole-house surge-protection products. The main selection question is whether you want the more connected monitoring experience or a simpler local-status approach.

Selection question WFSPD2ULTRA ALSPD2CORE
Installation category Panel-mounted whole-house SPD Panel-mounted whole-house SPD
Monitoring style Connected / smart monitoring focus Simpler local-status focus
Choose when You want surge protection plus connected status/monitoring features You want a simpler whole-house surge-protection setup with local status indication
Both products are panel-mounted whole-house SPDs. They should not be confused with plug-in outlet surge strips.
