Yes ,unless the product mfg says no. Most dimmers handle both, but you should check it if you have a dimmer switch on the light. Just remember that they can get hotter,so depending on what kind of fixture it is,watch the extra heat.
Halogen gas is in a Tungsten-Halogen Light Bulb.
Halogen light bulbs are more efficient on energy and last twice as long as a regular light bulb thus saving you money. After researching several websites on energy it is stated that a regular light bulb costs $9.49 for 1460 hours of use whereas a halogen light for the same amount of hours costs $8.76.
They are sold in stores.
Halogen light bulbs are made in a variety of sizes to meet different needs.
Halogen is a gas, so your question doesn't make much sense. If you're asking about a halogen (light) bulb, then the answer is: mainly halogen.
There is no halogen microwave. There is a halogen microwave oven bulb. (The technical term for a "bulb" is a lamp.) Some microwave ovens use a halogen lamp to light up the oven cavity. Replacing them is similar to replacing a "regular" incandescent lamp, except that when halogen lamps are being replaced, it is critical not to touch the lamp with bare fingers. Leaving skin oils on a halogen lamp shortens the lamp life and can set up a dangerous situation where the lamp might overheat.
Any where from 3000-6000 hours :)

A halogen floor lamp with a 300 watt halogen bulb will illuminate a room from wall to wall. While a halogen bulb gives off very radiant, bright light, you must be very careful because it also gets tremendously hot.
There is no direct cross over replacement for the halogen bulb. The pin configurations are different. The halogen bulb has pins whereas the LED lamp is an intermediate screw in base. The LED bulb uses an intermediate base so that it can be screwed into a regular household fixture as a direct replacement for the old incandescent type bulb.
Yes, the halogen bulb would provide about 30% more brightness (lumens) for the same electric power rating. So 70 watt halogen is about equal to 90-100 watt incandescent.
Halogen lamps are also known as quartz iodine lamps. Halogen light bulbs can be purchased at a number of hardware stores including Lowes and Home Depot.
