Before going any further, let's first explain what lumens are. Lumen is an SI (International System) derived unit that measures luminous flux or the amount of light emitted by a light source. Total lumens (lm) refers to the brightness of the total light emitted from a light source. 5000 lumens means that the intensity of light is 5000 lumens. How bright for 5000 lumens LED bulb?

How much light do 5000 lumens represent?


It can be compared with five 100-watt incandescent bulbs or ten 60-watt CFL bulbs as a reference index, and its brightness is not much different from that of a single 400-watt metal halide bulb.

1-lumen value is equivalent to the brightness of 1 candle, so you can also understand that a 5000 lumen LED blub has the brightness of 5000 candles.

The following is an introduction to the lumen value of several common lamps:


Flashlight

The brightness of a flashlight is measured in lumens, and a standard flashlight is about 50-100 lumens. If the lumens value of the flashlight you use at home is 5000, then the brightness of your flashlight is very good, which is equivalent to a 500-watt light bulb.

Floodlight

If you want to use a 5000-lumen flood light, you might consider the following recessed lights. The reason is that a 5000-lumen LED bulb can provide a very bright level of illumination from a single light source.

Are 5000 lumens bright enough?


A 5000-lumen LED bulb is a very bright light source, and if you are using it in a relatively small room, it can be very harsh. In this case, it is recommended that you use a 1000-lumen LED bulb. Under normal circumstances, garages, utility rooms, and warehouses are more suitable for 5000-lumen bulbs.

The maximum brightness produced by lumens depends on the size of the room and the height of the ceiling. Smaller areas are better for LED bulbs with relatively low lumen values; higher lumen value bulbs are better for larger areas that need to be illuminated.

Introduction of some lighting products using 5000 lumens

  1. Floor lamp

This kind of lamp is more suitable for use in dimly lit rooms, such as study rooms and work rooms. The overall brightness of the room will be more suitable for reading or work.
  1. Campfire

Assuming you usually have the habit of camping, the brightness of 5000 lumens is very worthwhile. Since our camping places are relatively dark, brighter lamps are inevitably required to see clearly.
  1. LED bulbs

Many different types of light fixtures in your home use up to 5000 lumens, especially in the living room and your workplace. Common types of lamps are chandeliers, LED strips, etc.
