Halogen bulbs are sensitive to oils in the human hand so you should always wear latex gloves or use something to cover your hand or the bulb will no longer function once you turn it on. Halogen bulbs are commonly used in dance club lighting and when i DJ'd i'd have to keep some gloves handy.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Halogen Lamps?

The average home has about thirty light bulbs being used each day, including those being used to light up rooms, refrigerators, and so on. Most of these are standard, inexpensive, incandescent bulbs. Halogen bulbs are an alternative that is starting to become very popular, however. There are advantages and disadvantages of working with a halogen lamp, however. Here are some of the things to think about when considering if halogen lamps are best for you. Advantages Halogen bulbs provide for a more pure, brighter white light. This makes the a better choice under certain circumstances. As an example, they are ideal for reading and any other tasks that require good sight. If your primary goal is to provide lighting that makes it easy to see exactly what you are doing, halogen lamps are the best choice. A halogen lamp is also a great choice for use with display lighting. This is when you want to highlight a painting, photograph, sculpture, or intriguing architecture. This is because of the fact that the lighting is so white. Since the light is in such a pure form, it allows objects to be viewed in their true color, giving them a more vibrant appearance. A halogen spotlight is also perfect for drawing attention to a specific point of focus. If standard bulbs are used for general lighting in the same room, this effect can be further enhanced. Halogen lights are also the best choice for outdoor lighting in the night. They last longer than traditional bulbs, making them more reliable. They have a higher energy efficiency, using about twenty percent less energy. This makes them great for saving money on electrical bills, or for use in portable lighting. Disadvantages Halogen lamps are not without their disadvantages, however. Perhaps most importantly, they cost about four times as much. In addition, they don't have the warm glow of a traditional light, which can make them off-putting to some people. They are also very bright, to the point that they have an intense glare which can be harsh to look at. For this reason, they should always be shaded or directed so that the light is not shining directly into anybody's eyes.

What is a halogen microwave?

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.
