Not directly, as you are comparing apples with Oranges in two senses: (a) a lumen is an SI unit, whereas a candlepower is an Imperial unit, and (b) lumens are used to measure luminous flux, whereas candlepower is used to measure luminous intensity.

How does voltage come from a candle?

Voltage does not come from a candle. A candle produces light and heat through a chemical reaction when the candle wax is burned. Voltage is typically generated by batteries or power sources that convert energy from various sources into electrical potential.


What is the power output of a candle?

26.25 Joules per second


How many Watts heat power does a typical candle deliver?

It is reported that a typically candle will deliver approximately 0.981 candela of heat power. Watts are used to describe electricity.PS:That (candela unit) still evades the (universal, desired, direct) "power conversion" (answer) to Joules per second (=Watt, standard, also of heat).It's common sense that a candle's flame, will deliver 1 candle of power (=candela),& tells nothing more.Meaning the question was NOT answered (correctly).


How does electricity come from candle?

I can think of three ways whereby a candle could produce electricity: 1). Heat water with the flame. When the water boils, use the steam to spin a turbine mounted to an electrical generator. 2). Place the flame close by a photovoltaic cell, which can convert a part of the candle's heat and light to electrical energy. 3). Place a pinwheel behind the candle flame, attached to an electrical generator, and wait for someone to come along and blow out the flame.


Can candle make electricity?

Candles produce light and heat through combustion, but they do not directly generate electricity. Devices like thermoelectric generators can convert the heat produced by a candle into electricity, but the amount generated is usually minimal.

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 do you measure the brightness of lamps?

brightness is measured in lumen's in new measurements, or candle power in old. to measure it, you need to get a photometer

What is the name of the light from a burning candle?

The light from a burning candle is called a flame. It is produced when the heat from the flame vaporizes the wax and wick, allowing the combustion process to create light.


What is the scientific name of candle?

Reformulate your question - 1 Lumen = the amount of light that a standard candle produces in relation to human sight.. theres an equation but it seems not to include the individuals capacity to see ;)


What is meant by the term 'candle power'?

The term candle power refers to a unit of measuring luminosity or light. The term candle power is now an obsolete term that was once used in the 1800's.


How does the lumen output change as wattage increases for an MR16 bulb?

Generally the lumen output of bulbs is proportional to the power used, if the bulbs are operated at their rated voltage.


How many watts in 1600 lumen high power led?

How bright is 120 lumen?

one lightening candle is one lumens, 120 lumens is 120 candles togher. Like IMALENT 4000Lumens, DDT40,imagine how it is bright.


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 do you spell lumen?

Do LED lights have a 100 percent lumen efficiency?

No, LED lights typically have a higher lumen efficiency than traditional incandescent bulbs, but they are not 100 percent efficient. LED lights can convert more of the electricity they consume into visible light, resulting in higher lumen output for the same amount of power. However, some energy is still lost as heat.
