About these units
The candela (cd) is an SI base or derived unit of luminous intensity.
The millicandela (mcd) is a metric unit of luminous intensity, equal to 0.001 candelas.
Going the other way, 1 millicandela = 0.001 candelas. Luminous intensity is how bright a light source looks in a particular direction, measured in candela, one of the seven SI base units. LED brightness is usually given in millicandela, and the older candlepower is treated as equal to one candela.
