|---|---|---|
| Incandescent | LED | |
| 75 | 10 – 14 | 700 – 1250 |
| 100 | 14 – 18 | 1,250 – 2300 |

To work out the lumens you need, simply multiply the square footage of the room by this figure.
Do you have to keep LED lights plugged in?
LEDs draw very little power so they can run for a long time on a small battery without any issues. There is no need for a bulky wall transformer and a wall plug to light your project.
