Something tells me this is the future.................

Does anyone know how the quality of the light compares to the average CF? The quantity from these things seems unbelievable. Is there a comparison to a given Kelvin rating or wavelength? Do the LEDs come in different wavelengths?

Does anyone sell banks of these that could be strung together for large tanks? How long do these things last? I'm assuming that with such low power input that heating isn't an issue.

Very, very cool!
