Default halogen vs energy-saving light bulb.... woes :S

Hey ! everybody, we are a energy saving lamp manufacturer in Taiwan and
actually had been develop this kind of bulb, I mean in G6.3 base ( same with
MR11 bulb ) and working in 12Vac, so, it can replace MR-11 bulb directly
without change anything, the original idea is design to replace halogen
bulb in low voltage garden lighing system, especially for pathway light
fixture application, we had been promote with USA market, in our idea this
way can use a small power transformer can drive more fixture and get more
illumination, but, the reponse is not good, does any can get us some
comment, I hope I can know where is going wrong.

I need some help and advice. I just moved into a new expensive flat. I
am trying to save money as I am low on income. I noticed that my entire
flat is illuminated by halogen light bulbs. Every single light bulb
socket in the ceilings are halogen bulb sockets. I know that halogen
light bulbs uses 10x more electricity/energy than conventional/old
light bulbs. Does anyone know the easiest way to replace the halogen
bulb sockets to be able to use the conventional/old light bulbs? Does
there exist a convertor?

To save some money I have taken all but one halogen bulb out from each
room. However I still don't like the sight of halogen light bulbs. I
prefer installing "energy saving" light bulbs but I do not want to use
floor/table lamps. There are now holes with dangling wires from where
the halogen light bulbs used to be. The wires are the halogen sockets.
