What is MCD in lumens?

mcd to Lumens Converter This calculator is useful for calculating the luminous flux for LEDS where the angle is known. 1 candela of luminous intensity equals 1 lumen of luminous flux per steradian of solid angle, where a steradian respresents a cone whose surface area at the end equals the length of the cone squared.

How many lumens is a candela?

A light beam with a strength of 1 candela and a space angle of 1 steradian (for a cone-shaped beam corresponds to an opening angle of 65.5 °) has a total luminous flux of 1 lumen. 1 candela is thus equal to 1 lumen per steradian.
