Overdriving lights.
Ok out of curosity I flashed up my 36" 96 watt PC's and measured the light only on them
my 10000K was putting out 410 foot candles @ 12"(4413 lux) and 5100 foot candles at the surface (54896 lux).
the 6500K was putting out 375 footcandles @ 12" (4036 lux)and 4600 at the surface (49514 lux).
with both bulbs running I took a measurment at 12" and I got 630 foot candle @ 12" or (6781 lux)
I am going to be taking my light meter out with me so when i stop by stores and such I willl try to get a reading off there lights.
