What color is Benjamin Moore Jack O'Lantern?
Benjamin Moore Jack O'Lantern 2156-30 is a clear, medium-depth orange with a warm golden cast. Its saturated character gives it enough presence for an accent wall, painted front door, or a lively kitchen island. In bright daylight, the color reads sunny and citrus-like, while lower or warmer lighting can bring out its deeper amber side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm wood, terracotta tile, or deep charcoal for contrast.

LRV of Jack O'Lantern
Jack O'Lantern has an LRV of 32.43% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 32.43%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
