Lumen to Kilolumen Converter
lm
klm
1. 1 lm × 1 = 1 lm
2. 1 lm ÷ 1000 = 0.001 klm
2. 1 lm ÷ 1000 = 0.001 klm
Unit Information
Lumen (lm)
The lumen is the SI unit of luminous flux, a measure of the total quantity of visible light emitted by a source per unit of time.
1 lm = 0.001 klm1 lm = 0.00159 cd·sr1 lm = 0.0796 lm/W (at 555 nm)
Kilolumen (klm)
The kilolumen is a unit of luminous flux equal to 1000 lumens, used for measuring the light output of high-intensity light sources.
1 klm = 1000 lm1 klm = 1.59 cd·sr1 klm = 79.6 lm/W (at 555 nm)
Common Applications
