Led Torches by Paul Disley / Travel, recreation and leisure community Further research into the SPE technology could result in even higher levels of light output and greater luminous efficacy, according to Narendran. SPE METHOD INCREASES LED LIGHT OUTPUT WITHOUT MORE ENERGY by Imaging Update The typical efficiency of this luminous intensity is 4 cd/W, which corresponds to a luminous efficacy of 12 lm/W.
