Overall cost plus replacement cost is a showstopper for HID, but $500 for an LED light isn't?

I've got a TrailTech HID that I love. New, with LiIon lightweight battery and smart charger is $200. Replacement bulbs are $85. I'm going on 2 years and it's just as bright as it was when new, so I don't know what the $ per year is going to work out to.

The LED in the Dinotte isn't going to last forever either. High intensity LEDs have a limited lifespan (OK, ALL LEDs have a limited lifespan, but the low intensity ones are in tens of years)

It's great to know that LEDs are coming that can really do the job. I'd RATHER have an LED than an HID, but until someone's putting one out that's as bright as an HID and no more expensive, I'll stick with my HID.
