About Megalumens

The megalumen (Mlm) equals 10⁶ lm. The output range for high-bay industrial luminaires and stadium floodlights: a 1 000 W high-pressure sodium lamp array produces approximately 1.1 Mlm; full LED stadium lighting systems reach 1-10 Mlm; maritime lighthouse optics emit in the low-megalumen range. 1 Mlm = 10⁶ lm.

About Kilolumens

The kilolumen (klm) equals 1 000 lm. High-efficiency LED light fittings: a modern 100 W-equivalent LED lamp emits 1.4-1.6 klm; a 100 W halogen PAR38 spot approximately 1.1 klm; short-throw projectors are rated at 1-5 klm (ANSI lumens). The standard unit for commercial LED fixture specifications and projector brightness. 1 klm = 10³ lm.
