-Try tungsten-halogen (quartz halogen) lights, you get roughly 2 times
-the lumens per watt as with a standard incandescent.  Be sure to get a
-glass cover for the light, they tend to put out quite a bit in the
-short and longwave UV spectrum.  Another possibility is the clip on
-reflectors available for some of the compact fluorescents, this should
-increase the directed light.
 
Don't halogens destroy the ozone layer? Shouldn't we avoid these?
