Yep... understood. BTW: As far as a "60 watt" bulb... try a Sun lamp or something like it. http://www.amazon.com/Executive-Sun-.../dp/B000N551RE You get the same light as from a 150 watt incandescent but it is much cooler and only uses 27 watts of power.

I agree. I expect it is about as good as it can get. But, perhaps they will improve it with the next generation. My feeling though is that the little do-hickies suspended in liquid while displaying the white side look gray due to being a bit translucent.
