60. LED's are far more efficient than fluorescents

And the big advantage to these dots, as I see it, is that they can use colored LED's and lasers (which are extremely efficient) and turn them into normal white light.

Right now, there are white LED's which are expensive and are not really a natural light like sunshine. And I'm not sure if there are white lasers yet.

This may be a cheap solution to make efficiency affordable.
