50k lm is quite high. What electric power consumption does it have ? I estimate around 500 Watt, am I right ?

It's 60k lumens now, and it draws 580W off the wall

Whats the expected life for the leds at that power draw level?

LEDs are pretty insane these days - the ones we use have an L90 (time until they hit 90% brightness) of >50,000 hours (17 years if you use it every day 8 hours a day).

How does the operating temperature of the LEDs affect your projected L90 time?
