Too Afraid to Ask

Halogen lights are a type of bulb that uses gas to make the light brighter than regular bulbs, but they use more power and last shorter.

Halogen headlights use a halogen gas inside the bulb to produce light, providing brighter illumination than standard incandescent bulbs but less efficient than LEDs.
