Heat lamps vs incandescent light bulbs

I read in another thread about a chameleon gaping under its heat lamp and to raise the lamp or lower the wattage; I also read that incandescents can be used to provide heat. My question is this: how do wattages compare? My guy had been gaping under his light and lowering his branch only made him climb the screen (which is what was said would happen in the other thread) So I really can't raise the light up any higher so the lower wattage would be what I need to do. My heat lamp is 75 watts so are incandescents comparable? Would the next step down be a 60 watt incandescent?:confused:
