Title: LED strip with accurate light intensity in lumens
Post by: Basshunter on 2020-11-09, 04:29:19

How could I simulate a 13' long LED strip with an intensity of 350 lumens per foot?

My guess was to create a 13 feet long rectangular Corona light and set the intensity to 4550 lumens, which results from multiplying 13x350. Is that correct?

Yes that would work. Because Lumens is the total luminous flux of the entire emitter surface you can scale lumens that way.
