Is the LED lighting label confusing?
Lumen: is the intensity to which something is illuminated. How much light gets to what you need illuminated? Illuminance is actually measured in footcandles. Is 800 Lumens enough to read by? Well it is! You need 60 fc for an older person to easily read. So the "old" (60W-A Lamp) equivalent is the (LED 9 - 9.5 W) at 800 Lumens, will do it!
More about this label later : )
