Joe,
There are several rules that would come into play here. First,
<R02> ROBOT parts shall not be made from hazardous materials, be unsafe, or cause an unsafe condition. Items specifically prohibited from use on the ROBOT include (but are not limited to):
A. Shields, curtains, or any other devices or materials designed or used to obstruct or limit the vision of any DRIVERS and/or COACHES and/or interfere with their ability to safely control their ROBOT

C. Any devices or decorations specifically intended to jam or interfere with the remote sensing capabilities of another robot,including vision systems, acoustic range finders, sonars, infra-red proximity detectors, etc.(e.g. including imagery on your robot that, to a reasonably astute observer, mimics the VISION TARGET)

There is the issue of safety, is the bulb protected from damage, from damaging other parts of the robot, or from setting your robot on fire?

We then move to electrical rules as to where the bulb is connected to electrical supply, wiring and possible control. To answer some of those questions, you will need to show specifications on current. The Spike is limited to 20 amps for instance.
