I don't know why the so called "torch lamps" got such a bad rap, I like them, but it's true the original halogen tubes suck down electricity like Melissa McCarthy sucks down ice cream.
I just removed a 300 Watt halogen tube, and replaced it with this 8 Watt LED, and it seems just about as bright to me. I know, the math doesn't quite add up, at 420 lm this LED should be roughly equivalent to a 60 W incandescent light bulb, but it seems as bright as the halogen to me. This one is the middle of the road "white", my favorite LED color ... not "warm white", not "cool white", but just plain ol' white. I think they look brighter, and the color is more natural.
I can't comment about longevity (I've had trouble with other LED manufacturers), all I can say is this thing works great right out of the box, I'm ordering more.
