Some new LEDs claim to be more efficient but if you actuall get info on the individual LEDs used they have a Efficiency less than MH.
Alot of energy is wasted by MH in the form of heat. VERY good bulbs but alot of energy wasted by being turned into heat.

You still cant beat the growth under a MH bulb
