Why test window tint?

Window tinting can diminish driver vision through vehicle windows.

This compromises the safety of the driver and their passengers. Safety is jeopardised when approaching vehicles with dark, non-regulatory approved window tinting. The internal space of the vehicle and its passenger's
movements are not clearly visible.

The tint meter is a portable Light Transmission Meter. The meter measures the level of light transmitted through
a tinted window to determine is safety level.

It is a lightweight accurate and easy to operate tool for
law enforcement officers. Some local regulations also require testing of tinted glass to ensure conformance,
during vehicle safety inspections. The tint
meter
provides inspectors
with accurate readings that would
otherwise be impossible by visual
inspection

The
light transmission
meter consists of a light sensor
built into the
body of the instrument, a precision illumination source
and a LCD display.

By aligning the light source and the sensor on the other side of the window, the percentage transmitted through the window is measured. The degree of visibility is obtained from
the reading.
