High-Brightness and Sunlight-Readable LCD Modules
Indoor lighting tops out around 200-300 cd/m². Once a panel sits near a window, under workshop lighting, or outdoors in shade, 300 cd/m² starts to wash out; direct sun needs 500 cd/m² or higher, or a transflective build. The models below are the ones on our current catalogue rated at 350 cd/m² or brighter. 12 of them are rated 500 cd/m² or brighter - the practical floor for a transmissive panel in direct sun; below that they are the right choice near windows, in workshops and outdoors in shade.
Selection rule
Selection rule: surface luminance of 350 cd/m² or brighter, as specified for each published model. Nothing else is filtered - if a published model meets that rule it is in the table below, and you can check it against the specification on its own product page.

When this is not the right spec
Brightness is not free: pushing backlight current adds heat inside a sealed enclosure and shortens backlight lifetime at a given ambient temperature. For an indoor cabinet, a 200-300 cd/m² panel is usually the better trade - use our brightness selector on the sunlight-readable guide to check what your own environment actually needs before over-specifying.
High-Brightness modules - questions
What counts as “high brightness” for an LCD module?
There is no industry line, but 350 cd/m² is where a panel stops washing out near window light and workshop lighting; 500 cd/m² and above is what direct outdoor sun needs. Figures on this page are the surface luminance specified for each model, typical at 25 °C.
Does higher brightness mean higher power draw?
Yes - brightness on an LED-backlit LCD comes from backlight current, so a brighter panel draws more power and generates more heat in the same enclosure. Specify the brightness your environment needs, not the highest number available.
Can you build brighter than what is listed here?
Ask - these are the published models with a full specification. Higher-brightness builds are possible on several of our panel families; send your target cd/m² and enclosure and we will confirm.
