This is the table to open when a quotation says "300W LED flood" and you want to know whether 24,000 lm is honest, or when a client asks what a hotel corridor downlight should deliver. It lists the typical delivered lumen packages, CCT options and system efficacy for the fixture categories that move in export volume. Read it as a plausibility band, not a specification: products exist above and below every range, but a datasheet far outside these bands deserves a question before it deserves an order. For the wattage side of the same conversion, pair it with our lumens to watts chart.
| Fixture type | Typical lumen package | Typical CCT | Typical system efficacy | Typical application |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LED bulb (A60/A19) | 450-1,600 lm | 2700K | 80-100 lm/W | Homes, hospitality lamps |
| LED tube (T8) | 1,600-3,200 lm | 4000K | 100-120 lm/W | Garages, back-of-house, storage |
| Recessed downlight | 400-2,500 lm | 2700-4000K | 80-110 lm/W | Homes, offices, hotels, retail |
| LED panel (600x600) | 3,000-4,500 lm | 4000K | 100-130 lm/W | Offices, schools, clinics |
| Track spotlight | 600-2,000 lm | 2700-3000K | 80-110 lm/W | Retail, galleries, showrooms |
| Linear batten | 3,000-8,000 lm | 4000K | 120-140 lm/W | Workshops, supermarkets, utility |
| Tri-proof batten | 3,000-9,000 lm | 4000-5700K | 120-140 lm/W | Parking, cold stores, wet areas |
| UFO high bay | 9,000-40,000 lm | 5000-5700K | 130-160 lm/W | Warehouses, gyms, factories |
| Street light | 3,000-25,000 lm | 4000-5700K | 140-170 lm/W | Residential to arterial roads |
| Flood light | 3,000-50,000 lm | 5000K | 130-160 lm/W | Yards, facades, sports areas |
| Solar street light | 1,500-8,000 lm | 5700K | 160-200 lm/W effective | Off-grid roads, estates, campuses |
| Chandelier (total) | 1,000-4,000 lm | 2200-3000K | 40-80 lm/W | Dining, lobbies — decorative first |
| Wall light / sconce | 200-1,200 lm | 2700-3000K | 50-90 lm/W | Corridors, bathrooms, facades |
| LED strip | 300-2,800 lm per metre | 2700-4000K | 80-120 lm/W | Coves, shelves, joinery, signage |
Illustrative industry bands for mainstream 2025-2026 product at standard CRI; premium bins run higher, budget product lower. Solar figures are effective lumens under dimming schedules, which flatters the lm/W — compare solar products on battery autonomy, not efficacy alone.
Efficacy climbs from bulbs to high bays because of physics and economics: larger fixtures shed heat better, run drivers at steadier loads and can afford premium bins, while decorative pieces deliberately trade efficiency for shade materials, dimming depth and warm CCTs — a chandelier's 60 lm/W is a design decision, not a defect. Outdoor classes run highest because every lumen is thrown unobstructed onto a target. When comparing suppliers inside one band, the honest tie-breakers are tested fixture lumens, bin discipline and driver brand rather than the headline number; the certification layer that backs those claims is covered in our lighting certification guide.
Every band above maps to a product family in the cluster: panels, downlights and track heads under commercial lighting, the high bay and batten classes under industrial lighting, and the street, flood and solar classes under outdoor and solar lighting.
