Not to go off topic but its incredible how the od600 led spec I was working on (and have a working prototype of) is identical to the item team's spec. Even the same led and initial design. So happy they did it with such good attention to detail and thorough understanding of optical density calculations. Very impressive work. :)
I did choose to use the light to freq converter instead of a photodiode and am designing a pcb using surface mount leds and an atTiny chip with a really good clock to count freq with high precision. Datasheets show that the photodiodes don't handle well at elevated temp. My idea was to make an ODlogging flask that you can throw into a 37c incubator and it will alert u via Bluetooth or wifi that your cells are ready. Either way super excited that "they beat me to it" and are using the device in their projects. +1 for small meaningful science tool dev!

Team Aachen from iGEM 2014 used $2 emission filter to good results: http://2014.igem.org/Team:Aachen/Notebook/Engineering/ODF (see: "filter leaflet")
Cool! Turns out the $2 item is a sample pack, and currently has a discount code for $0.01 (you still have to pay ~$5.80 for shipping). I just ordered two sample packs (though only one was $0.01) for less than $8. Looks like the company is targeting the movie/photo industry, rather than science... but they do offer a few dichroic filters, but didn't sell them directly ('contact a distributor').
