New Re: bigger lamp
One alternative is to replace the incandescent bulb with the more efficient screw-in type [link|http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?c=cfls.pr_cfls|compact fluorescent]. They generally use less than a quarter of the power for a given amount of light. They're expensive but pay for themselves in saved power.

And they don't burn you as badly! :)
