There is still no measurement of power on which to base this
statement. It is already well known that LED light from a pulsed
power source can be efficient for visual purposes. See:

The above circuit is incredibly efficient, working on nearly expired
batteries.
The one time measurement of a reduction in temperature was
interesting, but discounted by a subsequent measurement, and could
have been due to temperature variations and lag time of the insulated
thermistor.
