I looked them up and saw those same numbers, but how does a "lux" compare to lumens in layman's terms? Lux(es) factor in square meters or feet at a certain distance to measure output, right? Something along those lines. It's like thinking of speed in KPH vs MPH to me

Hey.

Hmmmm ... wellsir, one coud reasonably expect that you would actually follow the same advice you so blithely dispensed to the OP here:

In that regard, LMGTFY - 5 seconds... please hold .... *ding*!

http://www.ledrise.com/shop_content.php?coID=19

BTW - it is 110% NOT like yer mph to kph analogy; those are both a measure of the exact same thing, only the units are different. A more accurate analogy would be velocity versus acceleration....or mass versus pressure ... or ... well, you be git'n da pitcher, aight?

Class dismissed

OP - very sorry fer the hijack, but this here feller needs to go stand in a corner and beat himsef wif a stick, lol.

Cheers

Oye . . . point taken. I didn't understand the links I found; those are better. Only one of them, the least helpful, showed up under my search criteria. However, I provided links already and he didn't even bother to open them. I could say more, but I'm gonna refrain. You never change, do ya?

My KPH and MPH was for thinking purposes, not a direct comparison. Maybe try to understand intent versus literal comparison, I came up with that analogy in 2 seconds.

Hey, I checked his truck out, and I guess that's what he wanted. But yeah, I would've been like "oh, thanks, I'll get right on that . . ."
