In the simplest terms, lumens are how much light is generated; lux is how well it lights up the surface. Lumens are raw power, lux is usable power.
Thanks, that's always been a question when talking about LEDs, but I never thought about Light in general and I should have been; I used to work for a company that specialized in High Output Lighting, i.e. Operating Room Head Sets, High Intensity Light Sources for the Govnm't.
I never applied it to headlights, funny what you learn from the Web !

Yeah completely true. It took me 5 months to do my FX/R as I only could work on them when I had time, a little here, a little there, wasn't in any hurry to get them done. Better to just take your time. Good definition RCRV3N. Its good that someone cleared that up as I didn't know.
Thank for the encouragement based on your time frame, I think it will take me all of that or more.
I tend to overthink everything, so I have the parts, now for the thinking !
My Barn/Shop, need the Mezzanine finished, I still need to rearrange the benches and equipment, some larger tools go inside of the storage area under the Mezzanine, then onward !
My Honey-Do List is so long I need a few of these "Round To-It's" just to get started !
