Purchase links appear where the exact offer is verified. Confirm the named model, quantity and accessories before ordering.

Watch out

  • Check whether the listing includes the NIST certificate before ordering; the base model looks identical.

Why people pick it

  • Bundles the R1500 tripod, so the meter can be left in place for long-term, unattended noise logging without buying mounts separately
  • Logs up to 64,000 readings with time and date stamps, at a sampling rate you set from 1 to 60 seconds, per the maker's datasheet
  • Triple-range 30 to 130 dB measurement with A and C frequency weighting and Fast/Slow time weighting
  • USB download to a PC (Windows software included) and a backlit display with a 30-segment analog bargraph

Know before you buy

  • Accuracy is ±1.4 dB, a Type 2 / Class 2 rating, not the tighter tolerance of a Class 1 instrument
  • Frequency range tops out at 8 kHz, so very high-frequency content is not captured
  • Powered by 4 AAA batteries with about 50 hours runtime, which limits truly continuous multi-day monitoring without battery changes
  • The tripod extends to 56 in, lower than full-size survey tripods
