That is alot of light per watt, for that reason I bet we wil not see it come to fruition.

That is amazing if it works, around 20x the efficiency of traditional light bulbs... And probably not much more expensive to produce in mass scale... But probably it will not see the light of the day since governments world over has decided to ban incandescent bulbs... These you cannot even sell as an electric heating ball, like some German entrepreneurs decided to do, since they don't emit heat...
