Halogens == same as incandescent, just more efficient because the filament is enclosed and uses a recovery cycle to last longer.

Granted. However, I can get a pack of 24 regular incandescents for 20 bucks whereas a pair of equivalent halogens cost about 7 bucks. For a light that is rarely on and is only on for a couple minutes at a time when it is, I’d rather be able to get a regular old incandescent bulb.
