teralux to hectolux
Convert teralux (Tlx) to hectolux (hlx). Use an editable illuminance converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 Tlx = 10,000,000,000 hlx
Conversion formula
One teralux equals 10,000,000,000 hectolux. Multiply your value in teralux by this factor to get hectolux. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 teralux:5 × 10,000,000,000 = 50,000,000,000 hlx

About these measurements
Illuminance is luminous flux falling on a surface per unit area.
The base reference used here is the lux. One teralux is 1e+12 base units; one hectolux is 100 base units.
Important distinctions
One lux is one lumen per square meter.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
