What fraction of the lifetime cost of lighting is the power, vs. things like the manufacture, installation, maintenance, and disposal? Having a magnetron up there seems like a pain. Also, the noise?

The magnetron dies, and the thing doesn't scale down to a keychain flashlight like the 88lumn/W LED. We do have LEDs with >130lumen/W though...
