I want to talk Torches which is better

[Sempiternal]

Hello, ok im trying to get my head around whats better when looking at torches? is it the million candle power or the lumens number!

 

example this product is 3.5 mill candle power http://www.diy.com/nav/fix/handtools/torches-work-lights/torches/Diall-3-5-Million-Candle-Power-Torch-12508626?skuId=13029332

 

or a product like a maglite like this one http://www.diy.com/nav/fix/handtools/torches-work-lights/torches/Pro-Series-Cree-210-Lumens-11227532?skuId=11738236

 

ideally whats the best at lighting up space like rooms and hallways!

 

as im the last man out of a 5 story building, even though most the lights are on PIR mainly hallways but i still managed to trip up some steps on my last shift using the light from my phone,

 

so what you reckon i should go for ?

You should have a last man out switch which should stay on until you leave. Speak to your health and safety team.

If you're looking for a torch try "Heinnie Haynes" as they have some of the best at great prices.

We do have this switch on our lcd panel.. however the damn offices on level 4 are on switches and other random rooms.. its part of my ai instructions.. the building I look after is historic and no doubt owned by secret handshake people lol.. no tbf the building has a plaque stating when it was opened by the Grandmaster of the lodge..

 

So il just carry on with the current ai
