What zettalux measure
Zettalux (Zlx) represent illuminance. One unit equals 10^21 lx. One lux equals one lumen per square meter of incident illuminance.
Reading the result in zeptolux
Zeptolux (zlx) represent illuminance. One unit equals 10^-21 lx. One lux equals one lumen per square meter of incident illuminance.
Where this conversion helps
Convert an illuminance reading while retaining its measurement conditions. Illuminance varies with position, angle and distance. Scaling lux does not predict the light at another location.
How the scale changes
The input unit has a factor of 1e21 lx; the output unit has a factor of 1e-21 lx. Multiply the entered number by the input factor, then divide by the output factor. The physical quantity stays the same while its numerical representation changes.
Reading very small or large results
Scientific notation keeps very small and large values readable: 2.5e-6 means 0.0000025. The converter calculates with 50 significant digits internally and displays up to 10. Exact unit definitions do not remove uncertainty from the original measurement.
