I think there should be a conversion table for lux vs footcandles.
Need the conversion for 70-100 ft candles transfered into lux.

The foot-candle is equal to one lumen per square foot.
The SI derived unit of illuminance is the lux. One footcandle is equal to approximately 10.764 lux, although in the lighting industry, typically this is approximated as 1 footcandle being equal to 10 lux.
