Your post is generally spot on, except you appear to have missed that there is not even any LED stage lighting which meets the "proposed" efficiency standards - and there won't be before 2020. LED lighting from a reputable company (ETC, Philips, etc) is typically supported while in warranty but return to base usually if the LED engine fails, although self replacement of a circuit board is sometimes possible. Out of warranty if they are no longer the current model, then repair even by the manufacturer might be by cannibalisation from dead units of the same type unless the newer ones ones are compatible (not usual). We have a supporting cast of Philips Selecon PL LEDs (fresnel, profile and cyc) (October 2013) at my tiny theatre but they are Mk 1 so there are no (or few) spares for them especially if the LED engine has failed. Their warranty was 3 year return to base, which worked well. However, last year one of our cyc units - post warranty period - failed but Philips pulled out all the stops to get it repaired and got it going again from a box of parts a few hours after I brought the offending unit in to their London office. All 14 units are working in tip-top-condition (touch wood) after 4.5 years, with four failures resolved. Before the EU regulation problem came up, we could have started putting funds aside to allow for future failures and replacing them with Mk 2 ones if they can't be repaired. Now that's all out of the window because at £1,000 each or more they will be obsolete in under 2 years time and no-one has that sort of money to throw away. As far as tungsten goes, we have built up a 5 year stock of lamps which, due to our good past planning, are only a few different types.
