Put your hand in front of a 120 W bulb. Does it get warm?
Question is: What do you want to achieve by using a black body radiator? It won't give you any fancy colors, just a pretty smooth spectrum.
So you can have a light with a continuously variable wavelength. E.g. to see how organisms/minerals react to any wavelength through photoluminescence.
Basically just academic interest or just for fun.
Thats infrared. You dont get a sunburn for example because the glass blocks the uv out. Thats why you dont get a sunburn indoors.
