They do expect to reach 4 watts, eventually. It truly is a break through.
Unfortunately, no matter how efficient the conversion factors are, it gets really tough to generate useful energy from a source where it doesn't exist in quantities that are economically worth extracting.
For example: We've had night vision goggles for years. Why don't we just shut all the lights off and use them? Answer: Because they cost too much, the color rendition/resolution is poor, and, using them is a PITA! For most people, a $2.00 flashlight works better than a $150.00 pair of night vision goggles.
