In an experiment, one tube produced 440 microwatts. When the researchers used four tubes at once, they could power 12 LEDs for 20 seconds.

I can’t claim to know the manufacturing but this sounds just like the “The production of EV batteries is worse for the environment than burning fossil fuels” argument that ignores the fact that batteries are reusable
It is the same argument, but you cant even start to compare it. EV emits less than manufacturing, this wont at its current state.
Lets just look at the transportation.
These will probably be manufatured in Asia. Lets just say its not, and its only 20km from your house. How much energy would it take for you to get these with a car, or how much energy would the truck require to get them to the store.
Even if the car/truck is electric, these tubes would never in 100 years generate enough for the product to move to you.
And this is only if its manufactured nearby.
