Halogen light bulbs can reach temperatures between 250°F to 400°F (about 120°C to 200°C) during operation. The high heat is a result of the halogen gas inside, which allows the filament to operate at a higher temperature than traditional incandescent bulbs, producing more light. It's important to handle them carefully and allow them to cool before touching, as they can cause burns.
