Lumos Maxima is the incantation to a charm that can be used to produce a blinding flash of bright white light from the tip of the wand.[1] This light can be thrown far off of the wand, illuminating the surrounding area for several minutes after its initial casting before darkening once more.[3]
To cast it, one must flick their wand, then draw it back and flick it a second time, after which it will light, as noted in chapter thirty-two of Extreme Incantations by Violeta Stitch.[1] The spellbook also included a diagram depicting the proper casting of this spell.[1]
At the end of the 1992-1993 school year, Professor Filius Flitwick assigned his second year Charms students this charm to practise in the summer before their third year.[1] He allowed them to use Extreme Incantations to learn it and to help them.[1]
