Re: Best type of LED lights for driving
Lumens measure total light output. Candlepower is a measure of light output at a certain angle. Lumens apply to all lights, not just LEDs.
Candlepower is directly related to lumens, but can be fudged a bit based on where you take your measurements. |

![]() Many LED's are rated in MCD - mini-Candelas, It is a measure of brightness - in a single direction, Lumens measure total light output. i.e. a 40-Watt lightbulb should put out a good 400 Lumen (probably similar to a 5-Watt LED) Converter, and info: http://led.linear1.org/lumen.wiz More info: http://www.compuphase.com/electronics/candela_lumen.htm |

Re: Best type of LED lights for driving
I can't help with lumens but I can say I have Hella headlight housings w/ leds in one xj and IPF housings w/ leds in another. Each have direct from battery power using relay. Excellent excellent patterns and output from both using recent design led bulbs is terrific. Best non - drive train upgrade ever.
