Interesting. I would pay a fairly high premium to get 2x the light at half
the power of the halogen PAR30 lamps I'm using now (75W incandescent halogen
long neck). 150W of halogen flood, if it was made, would exceed the fixture
safety ratings.

They're probably not looking at offering MORE lumens though.. with an aging
population it might be a good market niche, at least until they get the
governments to mandate their product and they are all afloat in filthy
lucre.
