CurrentUse: Historically used to measure the brightness of light sources. It has largely been replaced by the modern unit of luminous intensity, the candela, in the SI system.
funfact: The international candle was one of the first standardized units for measuring light intensity and played a key role in the development of modern photometry.
bougie decimal
Definition: A historical unit of luminous intensity, equal to one-tenth of a standard bougie (candle).
Historyandorigin: The bougie decimal was used in early systems of light measurement, especially in France, where the bougie (candle) was the standard.
