I'm looking to buy a light and they list the capabilities of a light in candle power, Lumens and Watts. What's a better determinate for the amount of light a lamp will put out?

Example, a light has
10,000 Candlepower
25 Lumens
3.18 Watts.

Now I think the Wattage is just the amount of juice it uses...so I'm assuming the less that number is the more battery time you have...but the actual light output might suffer.

My dad bought a flashlight that is a million candle power. I shined it in dexterq's eye, and he punched me.

Candlepower or lumens, ignore the watts.
