Hey y'all!
I recently picked up a little V-201X Light Meter to use atop my Fuji GW690II and I'm really pleased with it. Been using it now for several weeks and have put a few rolls through it (color and black and white, day and night) and it's really accurate. One of the things I love most about it is that it's rechargeable via USB-C so I can charge it from a backup battery pack or in my car. No battery doors or batteries or screws to fiddle with. In the several weeks I've had it, the battery hasn't dropped even one bar so I assume it will last quite a while, but like most battery indicators, once it starts dropping, I guess it'll drop quick. For the price, it's a gem. And it's tiny.
Actual review of the meter itself (e.g. skipping past me rambling at the beginning) is around the 1:50 mark. You're welcome for not having to listen to me / stare at my ugly mug for 2 minutes.
Happy to answer questions!

I covered it in a quick little video review here:
