I'm trying to see how much energy it would take to illuminate a universe using these two calcs as a reference. The only problem is I suck at math and have a hard time understanding it. I tried using ChatGPT and Bing AI to help and they gave me 1.1e50 Watts as an answer, but I'm not sure how accurate it is.

Here's the match equation: -1.47 = -26.73 - 2.5log((L/3.846*10^26)(146000000000/(8.7998051e27))^2)
 
I mean, why you need it when is already exist in one of the link?
This is the one accepted for standard universe

Unless is something smaller than A universe tho

I'm using a universe that's bigger than our own for personal use and want to see the value, but since I don't understand the calc or how to solve it, I used AI and I'm not sure how accurate it is.
8.7998051e27
The Universe size I'm using.

I guess that is the radius, right?
 
-1.47 = -26.73 - 2.5log((L/3.846*10^26)(146000000000/(8.7998051e27))^2)

2.5log((L/3.846*10^26)(146000000000/(8.7998051e27))^2) = - 25.26

log((L/3.846*10^26)*(146000000000/(8.7998051e27))^2) = - 10.10400

log((L/3.846*10^26)*2.7527046e-34) = - 10.10400

log(L*7.15e-61) = - 10.10400

L*7.15e−61 = 10^ -10.10400

L*7.15e-61 = 7.8704579e-11

L = 7.8704579e-11 / 7.15e-61

L = 1.1007633e+50

I got the same answer, so it appears to be correct to me.
