What's the ballpark difference in price between this and the various MH units?
Let's compare similar sized fruit here.
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

The lawson unit I had delivered was right at $4000 and it's capable of exposing 2 23x31 screens at once.  I know on their website they claim that it's comparable to a 5000 watt halide.  I was looking at getting a tri-light here while back and it seems like if I remember correctly it was somewhere between the $12000 and $13000 range without the extra electrical work needed.  Of course it was a 6000 watt so not an exact comparison.
I can't verify it's 5000 watt comparable but it sure seems a lot stronger than the 1000 watt I had.
It's not a job if you love doing it.
