LED doubled probably means it will be the same. My experience with LED lighting and the new energy saving bulbs is that you have to buy double the lumens you need to get the same rating as what you need. We’ll see here in a few days.

No. Light level measured in lumens at the field now up to 277. This is not a measurement of the fixture. It is a measurement of actual light at the field with better color rendition.
is lower cost, residential lighting.
I specify industrial lighting for petrochemical plants and the light. There is no question we get better light, more light for these fixtures for far less energy and maintenance. But it is significantly higher initial material cost.
But when you have to rebulb every 5 years or so in a hazardous area with higher cost labor than found in residential/commercial, not to mention dealing with reactor vessels over 100 ft tall, it pays for itself.
So lumen measurement is relative to lighting technology?

You get what you pay for. If you buy the higher end Philips bulbs you get everything claimed. There are also sites on the web with results of LED bulb tests. Some are a lot better than others.
