   From the comment section (reminds me of halogen torchieres):   
      
   Imagine that, the gas reaches a temperatur of 6,000 K. What is that lamp   
   made out of?   
   I wouldn't want to have that in my house. Imagine touching that thing   
   inadvertently. That's an instant 3d degree burn.   
   This lamp is not only a great light generator, it's also a powerful lawsuit   
   generator.   
   "Little Billie put one of your light bulbs in his mouth and turned on the   
   light. Now his mouth is cooked"   
   Other than that: great technology, we should definitely deploy it.
