If I had a totally sealed, Co2 enriched, moderately sized room for commercial production purposes, and I had the capital to invest, I'd use LED simply for the fact that you can achieve light levels in the 14-1500 ppfd range at the canopy without cooking the plants from the heat coming off the lights, like you would being that close to a DEHPS. You could fully optimize growth a lot easier and drive production levels through the roof.
I know a few people running mixed LED and DEHPS right now, and I think the biggest thing holding them back from switching to full high watt LED is price. It's a barrier to entry. Especially with pot prices as bad as they are these days.
Then you've got these guys in Kelowna..
