Can anyone point me towards one of the above?
I'm informed that there's some kind of light-based test meter that can give an idea as to what kind of glass a particular pane consists of, but I'm struggling to find anything of the sort online...
Also, does anyone have any experience with these devices (if they are proven to exist!)?

We often think that when we have completed our study of one we know all about two, because 'two' is 'one and one.' We forget that we still have to make a study of 'and.'

I have never heard of a FR glazing meter, but I would also be interested in one if they exist

I do believe you've done it!
Hefty price though - will see if they want to splash the cash...
