LEDs are the future, but they are not the present, at least as grow lights. I've seen one impressive LED system posted on here, but the builder was an electrical engineer by trade. I got the impression building it involved a little more skill than my junior high school science project level of knowledge of electronics. And I know they get better all the time, but I'm still yet to see an over the counter LED system be more cost-effective than other forms of lighting. It's coming, but I don't think we are quite there yet.
