Comparing Lumen Output of Two 18 Diode LED Lights  

Question:

Seems like, since LEDs have replaced incandescent bulbs, manufacturers have become inconsistent in listing light output, leaving us in the dark. Do you have the data to compare this unit with clear lenses to the Optronics RVILL34, which also has 18 diodes and frosted lenses? That unit advertises 950 lumens. Im looking for greatest punch, as this light is going over a work bench in my vehicle. The original ThinLite 24inch dual bulb fluorescent finally died after 37 years. Are clear lenses available for the Optronics?

The Gustafson RV Pancake Light - Double Dome - Clear Optic Lens - 18 LEDs # 277-000340 has a lumen output of 225. The Optronics LED RV Interior Light with Switch - 18 Diode - Surface Mount - White Housing # RVILL34 has a lumen output of 920 raw but 815 effective.

The Optronics option in this case is a much brighter light and approximately equivalent to a 60 watt incandescent bulb. Unfortunately there is not a clear lens confirmed to fit this unit.
