It would likely do the same thing. I do think the 150 degree heat of the goldenrod is excessive (of course, everyone apparently swears by them so who am I to judge), but I can't tell you which is more energy-efficient. Using an incandescent is an old trick some craftsman use to keep tools from getting condensation/rusted in an otherwise unconditioned workshop. You build a closet or box to put the tools in with an incandescent light. It's just there to keep the tools constantly above the dew point. i.e. without it, the tools get cold overnight and then suddenly get bombarded with hot moist air when the shed or workshop gets hit by the sun, but not fast enough to heat the tools before they get condensation on them.
The damned humidity! Gun storage questions...

It used to just be the Mr. Cool minisplits that were pre-charged. I think Mr. Cool makes them both ways now, where you need someone to charge it and the others that are labeled "DIY". I'll be in the market if I ever finish our garage... one day. No where near as good as a Mitsubishi, but for a garage it's perfect considering little to no install cost.
