1500 lumens are bright for a single source of light but the amount of light you need depends on the size of the bedroom. Generally yes it is.
A general rule of thumb for enough light to see and do basic tasks is 400 lumens for small rooms, 800 lumens for medium-sized rooms, and over 1500 lumens for large rooms. In reality, the total lumens for a room with good lighting design are added to from multiple light sources and are not dependent on a single bright light source.
For example, a 1500lm total would be sufficient for a bedroom with an 800 lumen LED bulb in a ceiling light together with 2 x [b]400 lumen[/b] LED bulbs in [b]table lights[/b] on each side of the bed.[/quote]
