Dazor especially. It's just a bulb on a stick man!

Looks like LED is an easier path and they are plentiful, I just don't really like the quality of the light. I'd rather have a CFL.
I never noticed the ozone from my 50 watt halogen...
An hour under the car, fiddling a few inches from my 500W worklight convinced
me that (1) jackstands aren't tall enough, and (2) the UV from the light was
generating enough ozone to make me feel ill.
Halogens are great for color rendition, but for something that works
next to my drill press or grinder, rugged counts. Rugged LEDs are cheap.
Rugged halogens, not so much. CFL is scary around rotating machines,
much worse for strobing than a good electronic-ballast fluorescent.
The LED lamps that use a regulated power brick are GREAT.
My drill press got much more accurate when that lamp was installed.
