Re: FEELER: XPL Lasers (RG:Y, RB:M, high-power 532s, etc)
I would say the calculator tends to overestimate the brightness of greens in general. However, that doesn't matter when you are comparing 2 greens, rather than a green and some other color.
That's true, it may not always seem accurate as I believe it's all theoretical. It's mathematically correct, but using it for applicational purposes can be shifty. It also depends on many other factors, for example your environment is probably one of the biggest ones, output accuracy (You might not know if your diode is exactly 1.4W), battery level etc etc
For the calculator to be completely correct it would need to be done in a lab style environment, where the air is purified so that Raleigh Scattering is in sync with the brightness calculations and it's default programmed Raleigh Scattering density/levels.
