It's not a straight conversion. The amount of light produced by a source is in lumens, while candlepower is a measure of intensity.

I purchased a 2,000,000 candlepower rechargeable and was wondering how to think in lumens. My flashlight's maximum setting is 315 and sorta lights the pump house 127 yards away. With this I could set fire to a near by bush.
