Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
duck!, here's a wild pitch:
How many lumens per watt does a campfire produce?
It was suggested that I start by figuring out the lumens per watt for a
candle, because conversion from (Thee Standard) candle to lumens is
fairly straight forward.
Of course, I can't be sure a candle consumes watts of energy the way a
burning log does, but, you know, I just want a number--an
interesting--if fuzzy--statistic to help compare and contrast various
light sources.
Hints and suggestions? Words of encouragment/discouragment? Thank you
very much,
Jason
