    The numbers behind itFor the curious: light levels, beam comparison and plain-English definitions

    Same brightness, different beams

    Light level at your target distance on the centerline, with your current brightness and mounting. The gold mark is your goal.

    What this means for your setup

      Brightness, candela and lux in plain English

      BrightnessTotal light a fixture puts out in every direction. It says how much light there is, not where it goes.
      CandelaHow intense the light is in one direction. A tight spot has high candela. The same light spread wide has low candela.
      LuxLight that lands on a surface. Lux falls with the square of distance: double the distance and you get a quarter of the light. 10.76 lux equals 1 foot-candle.

      Planning estimates from a simplified beam model, not a photometric test. Real fixtures vary with optics and lens condition. Compare candela and lux-at-distance figures on a manufacturer's data sheet before you buy. Aim lights down and away from oncoming drivers, and check your state's rules for warning lights and white lights facing traffic. Work-area targets of 54, 108 and 215 lux (5, 10 and 20 foot-candles) follow the levels in NCHRP Report 498 as summarized in the ATSSA night lighting guide. Shop lighting at ultrabrightlightz.com.
