PAR20-18 12V LED Flood Lamp with 18 LEDs

These LED flood lights are made with very bright 12,000 mcd white LED's PAR-type glass floodlight housings.  The 18 LED lamp makes a great reading light if you are within 3 to 4 feet.  The 45 LED lamp is extremely bright and easy to read under from 5 to 6 feet away.  They have an  expected life of 10 years or more and carry a 2 year warranty.

The most common measure of light output is the lumen.  Lumens measure how much light actually falls on a surface.  The unit of measure commonly used to describe LED intensity is the millicandela or mcd.  1000 mcd = 1 candela.  Candelas measure how much light is produced as measured at the light source.  Since lumens and candelas are measuring two different things they can't be directly compared, but a rough comparison is possible.  Lumens x 80 = the approximate light output in millicandelas.  A 15 watt fluorescent light has an output of 870 lumens or roughly 70,000 millicandelas or 70 candelas.  Individual white LED's have a light output of 2,000 to 10,000 mcd's.  Caution: Super Bright Leds can be intense enough to injure the human eye at close range.
