Can halogen lamps be operated in serial circuit?

Serial circuiting for halogen-NV lamps is not recommended. The electric current flowing through the individual lamp is not determined by the individual lamp, but through the total resistance of the row of lamps. In this process those lamps are operated with overload, which – with constant provision voltage – gives a lower efficiency uptake Consequence: Shortened life span!
