Forget Halides and LED's, I want plasma

Just came across this article, seems pretty awesome.

It is a plasma light bulb that leap frogs most of what is available in lighting today, check out the video.
It has twice the efficiency of LED's, and the ability to pump a lot of juice through a single bulb. Wonder what the prices are going to look like on these and how long before someone throws one above the tank

Someone should run out and patent the idea of lighting aquariums with plasma bulbs so we can have a replay of the led thing.
