How do I convert Candlepower to Lumens?
This is a great question that was giving to us by our readers. The answer is, without going into too much depth, you can’t. It’s like comparing apples and oranges. The reasoning is you are trying to measure two different things, focused (candlepower) and unfocused light (lumens). Remember to keep those questions coming.
So if lumens is unfocused light and that is what this is mesured in then in this flash light not a focused beem?
