[Radiance-general] I can't get even similar irradiance values from a lamp.

Hm, how did you calculate the 44W/sr/m2 for the lamps? I get
7.5/(2*pi*0.54*0.032)=7.5/0.1086=69W/m2, divided by pi=21.99 W/m2sr.
This means that your light source is two times brighter than I would
expect it to be.

CU Lars.
