Does the lens get real hot? Will it melt saran wrap?

I use my leds to light my outdoor fountain. Right now, they are covered with snow and have been for several days without melting the snow that is virtually touching the lenses. So, while I haven't tried to place saran wrap over them, since they produce almost no heat, I would guess that they will not melt saran wrap.

In my experience with these, they don't put out any measurable heat at all...if you'd like a picture of what they look like in my back yard, shoot me an email to jm@cadwallader.us and I'll forward one to you.Great Buy in my opinion!

I just measured the temp of the lens with a laser temperature gun. It is 53 degrees outside currently and the lens cover measured 64 degrees. It is cool to the touch and the lights have been on for two hours. Hope this helps.

Wrap it with Saran Wrap? It's a light, not a pickle! I can't even imagine what you're up to. Just kidding. But, to answer your question no, it stays cool as a cucumber. Notice the connection with pickle. I think its power consumption is one watt, that is very little heat to dissipate. I just put my face to one, could barely feel the heat.

Yes, it gets very hot! The cover is polyester and rayon. That, combined with memory foam, sets your legs on fire. I bought this but cannot use it because of that. I will buy the one with the cotton cover next.

No. It might keep it warm?? If you melt it before you put it in the device.

Not sure I would try that in that the unit gets warm to hot, and if the lenses were in contact with the metal container, might damage them. Also, I have had two of the units fail. Hard to tell unless you listen quite closely. Found out when my contacts started bothering me. Now use a different system.

I'm not sure you can. The lenses I bought are pretty small. If you want to cook with your lens, you'll probably need to buy a bigger one that comes with a frame. That said, they are good for fire starting, as mine will cause a pine bark nugget to almost instantly burst into flame.

No issues for me with flare...if course if I am shooting directly i not the sun as with any lens its best to shade the lens ..I use a foldable reflector

Due to it's 600 lumens it does get pretty hot. Usually I do not leave it on long or keep hand around the bezel. Only to temporarily subdue the intensity do I have hand there.

I use really hot water and have not had the cover melt. It gets soft but doesn't melt. At least that has been my experience.

Mine was snowed on this week. Eventually with 3-4" the light melted the snow.no issues with broken lens.I like the look .much nicer than my old ones I had fluorescent in.

No, it won't melt. Basically it a giant roll of clinging plastic wrap. A larger version of the stuff one uses in the kitchen. So it has to be above the water boiling point temperature to melt.

No, but there's a small chance anything might harm the lens in my opinion. Coverage is great but just like phone cases the camera lens is exposed. Hope this helped

The handle, lid knob and feet on bottom are plastic ... I've had no problem with with too hot to handle or melting. The stoneware, glass lid and metal outside skin all get very hot on high, but we use weekly and have never had a bad burn. hope this helps some. John

For only one lens you will probably just be "frying ants." Think more in terms of outfitting several of these in holders made up so the focal point of all of them is at the point where you want the heat to be. You'll need to experiment with the focal length and the target size. Haven't done it but I think that's how I would go about it.

No it is more like 150 degrees, you will have the normal distortion that is accompanied with this type of lens.

Hi there; If you keep the screen on continuously it will get slightly warm (but not hot) If your camera gets hot I suspect your battery will also be lasting a very short time. Best get a Fuji agent to check it out.CheersSimo (from middle earth)

Condensation? As water in the lens? I haven't had any problem with that, and mine is kept outside in a small shed where it gets pretty darned hot in the summer.
