The E6's are halogen. Its a great system.
Why wouldn't anyone carry spares as good practice? We carry spare tubes, tools, some people carry a spare tire or chain! Seems a handful of bulbs is not much weight for some insurance you can see at night.
I kept 4 in an old film canister for last seasons brevets - carried them around most of the summer in my kit and replaced 2 of them on my 600k. If I'm looking for weight or gear reduction there are lots of other places I can make more dramatic differences than a few bulbs...
