How bright is 15000000 candlepower in lumens?

Cannot be converted as the dimensions of the units do not match. You can however convert candlepower to lumen/steradian.


How much candle power in 360 lumen?

Lumen and candlepower are not the same thing. Lumen measure the of light surrounds, like you would light a room with a lamp. Candlepower measures the light in a beam, like a flashlight beam. With a few assumptions you can convert lumen to candlepower. With these assumptions 360 lumen would be 28.6 candlepower.


How much heat is generated by 1 watt?

According to some of the answers given here, and the mathematics involved in wattage, it seems to be that one watt equals 14.5°.Why? Because you can cram 1009 people into an 1809 sq ft room. You can heat a 400 sq ft room with a 1500w heater. Human Body temperature is 98.6°.


What is the wattage of a 1141 bulb?

A standard 1157 bulb has a 5 to 8 watt dim element and about a 21 watt bright element. An aftermarket 1157 LED bulb is between 3 an 5 watts total.


How many lumens for an led replacement vs stock 1141 bulb?

A lumen is a measure of how much total light a bulb produces. Incandescent (1156) bulbs spray their light through almost 360 degrees and lamp housings designed for them rely on that. Most LED lamps put all their light out in a narrow cone and work poorly with standard 1156 housings. However, there are LED assemblies that have their light-producing chips arranged around a sphere and they work well in standard housings. The LEDs you see on commercial vehicles are mounted in housings designed for their narrow cone output, that's why they look bright. A standard 1156 bulb puts out about 400 lumens when new. As of January 2010, I haven't found an LED replacement that puts out any more, and most are only 50 lumens or so, not enough for a standard 1156 housing. To confirm the above: From Bosch Automotive Handbook7th ed. a 1156 (BA15S) Stop/Turn 21W bulb puts out 460 lumens. For a 5W Side marker / Tail BA15S it is 50 lumens (strangely low, I know) and 10W Tail light 125 lumens. If replacing with a warm white LED, then that is how many lumens you need to match the brightness (as well as light direction being good). BUT, if using a Red LED for a brake light or an Amber LED for Turn signals, then less lumens are needed. This is because the Red lens of a brake light filters out all the blue, yellow, green, etc out of white light, but filters nothing from a Red LED. The question now is: What is the percentage of "Red" in the light output of a "White" incandescent bulb?

What is the difference between a 1156 bulb and 7506 bulb?

The 1156 bulb has one filament in it, which means it only lights on or off. The 7506 on the other hand, has two filaments. The first filament is usually lit up when the headlights or auxiliary lights turn on, and alike the 1156 bulbs (they are usually used for taillights) they light up when they get the second side with voltage sent through them. Hope this helps!
