LEDs don't seem very cost effective, and the energy usage seems
comparable to CFLs.

When LEDs come into mass production, to the extent of CFLs, that will
fix the cost effectiveness ... a good LED consumes 50% the power of a
CFL, or better ... this efficiency is not as advanced as it will be in
the future.
