We find that the ICL makes up about $\sim$ 24% of the total cluster stellar mass on average ($\sim$ 41% including the flux contained in the BCG within 50 kpc); this value is well-matched with other observational studies and semi-analytic/numerical simulations, but is significantly smaller than results from recent hydrodynamical simulations (even when measured in an observationally consistent way).
