2. Luminous flux - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_flux

   The luminous intensity (in candelas) is a measure of how bright the beam in a particular direction is. If a lamp has a 1 lumen bulb and the optics of the lamp are set up to focus the light evenly into a 1 steradian beam, then the beam would have a luminous intensity of 1 candela. If the optics were changed to concentrate the beam into 1/2 ...

3. Lumen (unit) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumen_(unit)

   A 470-lumen LED lamp. It consumes about one sixth the electrical power of an incandescent light bulb producing the same light. Lamps used for lighting are commonly labelled with their light output in lumens; in many jurisdictions, this is required by law. A 23 W spiral compact fluorescent lamp emits about 1,400–1,600 lm.

4. Luminous efficacy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_efficacy

   Luminous efficacy can be normalized by the maximum possible luminous efficacy to a dimensionless quantity called luminous efficiency.The distinction between efficacy and efficiency is not always carefully maintained in published sources, so it is not uncommon to see "efficiencies" expressed in lumens per watt, or "efficacies" expressed as a percentage.

6. Illuminance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illuminance

   Illuminance diagram with units and terminology. In photometry, illuminance is the total luminous flux incident on a surface, per unit area. [1] It is a measure of how much the incident light illuminates the surface, wavelength-weighted by the luminosity function to correlate with human brightness perception. [2]

7. Lumen maintenance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumen_maintenance

   Lumen maintenance is the most useful gauge to determine the lifetime or useful light output rating of an LED light source. Unlike traditional light sources such as incandescent lamps, LEDs rarely fail outright and instead continue to emit light, albeit at slowly diminishing rate over time. [ 1 ]
