Do these lights generate much heat?

To be honest, I have made two installations and I am so impressed with the product and service from these folks I felt a review somewhere was in order. My installations were actually custom orders of the super ultra bright strips direct from Inspired LED on-line. The whole process was so easy, complete and the people were fantastic to deal with. Love the product.

No these lights run cool . You can almost handle them on during installation if you are attempting to determine the right position.

Led lights only generate a slight amount... I never had any issues and I have them mounted under my kitchen cabinets... Excellent upgrade!!

You're welcome. They worked well for me. I highly recommend them. Good luck.

You really can't tell they give off any heat at all, I've never noticed them to be excessively warm. You can use an LED instead but I have yet to find an LED that doesn't really stick out in that lightbulb design, the LEDs have a lot of plastic in their design as opposed to the halogens that have a sleek, metal look to them.

I am not using a fan right now. It is winter here and the lights don't seem to run that hot. I have them about12 in from the plants.

To my experience, not at all! I am very pleased with these lights overall, I redid my entire house in them, testing my KWh meter before and after, nearly 2x as efficient!

No - we have no used them much as our electrical is not wired correctly outside. You should have them high up and project where you want heat.

No, the neat thing about these is they are CFL lights set to the color temperature of daylight--so they do NOT give off the heat of regular incandescent bulbs!!

These bulbs transmit a lot of heat. We use them for under counter lighting.

No, it does generate some heat as I use them to light one bulb 12 volt on a 1925 Henderson, it will get warm

I can only answer from my own experience with an 8 foot ceiling in my kitchen. I don't experienceany unusual heat from them.

No, there is very little heat generated from this light unit. I use it to illuminate a refugium which is in a cabinet and I don't have any problems with heat at all.

Yes. LED bulbs produce very little heat and that is why the are so energy efficient.

I have no idea, I put them in a line of lights on my ceiling. They are not as bright as the ones I took out and I don't think they are hot.

Brittany, sorry about the slow response time, I bought this item for my Grand daughter and we set it up last Christmas, this item is battery powered and doesn't generate heat at all from what I can tell, I believe the lights are LED so they are very cool.

I have these in several fixtures and I do leave some of these on for extended periods, and they certainly don't produce as much heat as an incandescent bulb. By no means would I call the amount of heat they do produce "tremendous".

Yes, the housing around the light gets hot. There is a handle on each fixture to adjust that doesn't get hot.

yes they get warm but they are CFL lamps but in my opinion nothing to worry about

I know they would be bright enough. They lay against vinyl siding type of material in my setup and I've never seen any heat/burn marks. You should call Novelty for the best answer
