what??? are you high?
take a look at melting point table, 3000 c will melt almost anything, even 3000f(1648c) is still a lot.

fillament gets very hot , more in halogens than anywhere else, there it might be 3000c, but who cares if bulb is filled halogen, or vacum in incandecents case, surfice temp, are way lower. otherways you'll melt the glass housing, and everything else around, almost as soon as you plug it in.
