Halogen?

I have two 1000 watt halogen shop lights that I am using to provide light and heat for my indoor vegetable seedlings. They have two settings and I keep it on the lower setting, but since halogen still burns pretty hot, I keep them about a foot away from the soil. My peas started sprouting after a day.

Is halogen no good to use for starting seeds indoors? Should I invest in some fluorescent instead?
