Default Window Tint testing

Hi guys,

I know cops are cracking down on darker then 35% window tint more these days but I hadn't heard of anyone getting busted till I got done last night at a servo of all places.

Was filling up and a highway patrolman pulled in to fill up and asked me to wait for a second and grabbed the tester from his vehicle. $110 fine and 1 demerit point.

Now the question I'm hoping someone can shed some light on is:

Is there a certain time of day/condition under which the cops have to test under?

I'm asking this because when the test took place it was dusk and the servo wasn't well lit. The machine he used didn't actually shine it's own light to test it merely read from whatever light was passing through the window at the time and read less then 35% and given full sun it would've read more then what it did...
