>I'm kind of useless at judging what kind of light the rest of the apartment gets outside of this.
I do understand the problem, another problem is that your eyes adjust to the light conditions which makes the amount of light deceiving.
Years back I invested in a Lux meter. It measures the amount of light. I use it to determine what is the brightest and what is the shadiest spot in my living.
These values do I use.
>1000 Lux = very bright light (In full sun I grow Crassula ovate here, south faced window)
10.000 Lux = bright light (With some morning sun I grow Dracaena here and for instance Stapelia).
5000 Lux = light shade (Among others my Anthurium grows here, also Spathyphilum)
2000 Lux = shade (Boston Fern, Phalaenopsis orchids)
These are just guidelines.
I have exactly the same one as this one https://www.amazon.com/SODIAL-Light-Lx1010b-Luxmeter-Display/dp/B00SO31JI2/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1525274886&sr=8-5&keywords=lx1010b&dpID=41cE2psCvFL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch
I hope I'm allowed to mention a link as example for what I have. Of coarse there are other sources to obtain them.
Mine works flawlessly. It told me that in the middle of the room with a North and South window, I have 1/4 of the amount of light than in my Nord window with overhang! I couldn't see that difference with my eyes.
