Conversion Formula

klm = µlm × 1.000000000e-9

About Microlumens

The microlumen (µlm) equals 10⁻⁶ lm. LED indicators in deep-sleep power-save mode, fiber-optic signal pilots, and OLED display pixels at minimum brightness fall into this range. Equivalent to a 555 nm source radiating approximately 1.46 nW of radiant power. A night-vision display backlight operates at 1-100 µlm. 1 µlm = 10⁻⁶ 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.
