About Meganits

The meganit (Mcd/m²) equals 10⁶ cd/m². The scale for extreme light sources: outdoor LED video walls at peak brightness reach 3-10 Mcd/m²; laser exit apertures are typically 10-10 000 Mcd/m²; the solar disc at zenith has luminance ≈1 600 Mcd/m² (1.6×10⁹ cd/m²). Used in laser safety and high-power illumination. 1 Mcd/m² = 10⁶ cd/m².

About Millilamberts

The millilambert (mL) equals 10/π cd/m² ≈ 3.183 cd/m². Historically used in the United States to specify projection screen luminance and oscilloscope phosphor brightness. A projection screen with luminance 1 mL ≈ 3.18 cd/m². Largely superseded by cd/m² and foot-lamberts in modern display standards. 1 mL = 10/π cd/m².
