They are sold in stores.
Yes, you can use a regular bulb in a 3-way lamp. You won't get the 3-way effect though, the regular bulb will just turn on and off.
LEDs and CFLs use about a quarter of a halogen so the answer is 35-40 watts.
Halogen bulbs generate a lot of heat and for that reason the power (watts) is limited, to prevent a fire hazard. Each light fitting should be marked with a power limit which should be observed. Without additional information a 300 w bulb should not be put in a fiiting that previously had a 230 w bulb.
You should be able to use a self ballasted lamp in a regular socket safely as long as you do not exceed the wattage recommendations of the fixture. Self Ballasted simply means that the electronics to drive the flourescent bulb are all contained withing the packaging of the lamp. I hope this cleared up the question. Ben M.

Halogen bulbs come in various ratings, as do all bulbs.
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.
Fluorescent lights use far less energy than any of the others listed.

Yes. It just won't be as bright.
Halogen light bulbs are more efficient on energy and last twice as long as a regular light bulb thus saving you money. After researching several websites on energy it is stated that a regular light bulb costs $9.49 for 1460 hours of use whereas a halogen light for the same amount of hours costs $8.76.

Yes, the two voltages are in the same range category.
You cannot use most fluorescent lights with a dimmer. Just about any incandescent bulb WILL work with a dimmer. Occasionally, when a halogen bulb burns out, it will destroy a dimmer switch but halogen bulbs are considered incandescent and other than that little problem they work well with a dimmer.
Halogen.

Yes, as long as it has a filament for producing light for example a Tungsten Halogen Lamp, normal Incandescent or GLS lamp. If the lamp is rated at 12v it will run on either 12vac or 12vdc.
