Like  you Stefan,  these  pioneers are  pushing  the  limits  , using  heat pumps  to  cool the  light  source, the  source is  as small  as possible to  ensure  good coupling ..  reducing  the  duty cycle  as  in radio  can  be a  big  help ...  but  as I say  its a  tool  , if  anyone  wants to  try , it  puts  all the  features in one  box

fsk  , of  course , but  simplicity is  the  object  , switching the (led)  light  off  and  on could   reduce the  duty  by  50%  where  heat is  a problem ,

Why should it be an advantage to reduce the duty cycle to 50% and where do you expect heat problems when driving a LED?

Yes there are some high power modules but even 10W power dissipation should be managable for everyone.
