The Pro provides CO2 levels, PPFD readings, and gives you spectral information. The first two are good if you need continuous monitoring but, unless you're building your own lights, I'm hard pressed to figure out why I'd want to a spectrograph when I can get it from the manufacturer.oh wait my pulse will have pffd readings on it? oooweeee i'm happy as fuck now
Edit: oh pro
If you're not using CO2, which is my situation, I'd go with the PulseOne and then put the money into a PAR meter. One, a separate PAR meter is going to be easier to use in day to day operations. Second, I read a comment on the Pulse site that the readings from the Pro are very dependent aligning the sensor correctly. In contrast, the SPOT ON and the Apogee both have a significantly larger sensor than the PulsePro and, while I can't substantiate it, I suspect that they build sensors that size for a reason.
Bottom line for me was - no CO2 so PulseOne + separate PAR meter = more usability.
