Halogens are hotter than incandesants.
You want "flood" bulbs not "spot" as they are too tight of a beam and can cause burns.
I also reccomend not using bulbs with a clear center for the very same reason. You want either a completely clear bulb or one with the "dimples" over the whole face of the bulb. NOT "dimpled" with a clear center.
