I found a reference on a government site to a supposed unit called a "candle watt". Sounds to me like they meant candlepower. It's in reference to the allowable brightness of lights used in official nighttime surveys for a protected species of frog.

The associated discussion of allowable flashlights is...well... no comment. I just wanted to run it past folks to make sure the issue isn't my own personal ignorance.
Thanks,
Bill
