Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Resistor Code Calculators at none against Lux Light Meter's 3. Resistor Code Calculators also leads on iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17). Lux Light Meter's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
