Is there any Lab to measure the aquarium light spectrum?

Not that I know of, the equipment is very expensive and I'm thinking about buying just a handheld spectrometer but it will basically just tell what the over all kelvin rating is

I think the equipment is very useful for LED light. LED light is almost single wave length, so we are not sure what a kind of spectrum LED fixture has.
Also, many of T5 do not show their spectrum.
