The problem is that the next device costs a lot more because it has to be much bigger, that is unless you have much stronger magnetic fields. The cube of magnetic field is proportional to the energy gain in a Tokomak. See this video at at 46 minutes to get the equation, watch more to understand why people are now doing this.

Tokomak Energy and Commonwealth Fusion Systems among others are looking at smaller reactors that use High Temperature Superconductors.
