Flashlights selected by lumens: always have light at hand
How many lumens do you need? It is the first question often asked when looking for a good flashlight. After all, the more lumens, the better. Right? You need to know that the amount of lumens doesn't say anything about the beam distance of the light. Two flashlights with the same amount of lumen do not have to be as bright or shine as far. Today, the most used LED lights produce more than enough lumen for most tasks in and around the house and at the campsite. As soon as you are looking for an extreme amount of light the amount of lumen will be more important.
Lumens: a unit of light intensity
When choosing a torch, the number of lumens is an important factor, as it determines how strong the light is. For simple chores in and around the house, torches up to 500 lumens are often sufficient. For activities such as camping or hiking, models up to 1000 lumens offer a good balance between brightness and range. For professional applications or situations where maximum illumination is needed, torches with more than 5,000 or even 10,000 lumen are ideal. The right number of lumens depends on your usage situation, and with the right choice, you can work efficiently and comfortably in any environment.
