i have a few halogen desk lamps that i would like to convert to LED lights. I would like to use the same casing/sockets/wires as i have right now, and just replace the halogen bulb (because it feels like i'm sitting next to a space heater when i'm working near it). I have seen things at Target that convert halogen flashlights to LED with a small adapter. Is there something similar for desk lamps?
thanks

There are good Chinese torches available for $2 using 9-11leds. You can remove the reflector with these leds and connect to your halogen fixture using a step down transformer, or you can make your own check this site for help -www.otherpower.com, go to the led section.

LED illuminators are available but because they are pretty new they are somewhat expensive to get the same intensity of light. You need current controllers to make them work well and a plug-in unit is not as user friendly as a bulb -YET.
For example a 100W floodlight replacement LED unit can be found for a mere $700...
Here's a couple sites:
