Is there considerable heat generated?

I keep it in the sump on all night and according to my apex controller there is no difference in heat regardless if it's on or off

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.

no, if you touch the top of the light it'll be warm but the light itself won't heat up the water's surface considerably.

I have not noticed significant heat generated, the lamp is warm to the touch but I don't think it's terrible.

My runs about 10 hours a day; it gets slightly warmer than air temperature; but it isn't considerable.

I found that this light does generate a considerable amount of heat. I would not recommend it without proper air circulation.

Honestly I don't know, but it's never overheated and always did the job. No complaints at all. You won't be let down, that's a promise

Yes very hot but there is a strong fan. The fan takes lots of energy so it need to be plugged in

No, the fan blows out the heat. There is a choice of high and low fan. Also you can choose whether or not it oscillates.

Hi Mike, I haven't had mine for very long and I was supprised at the heat. It is a dry heat which actually wasn't bad. My mom had a de humidifier when I was growing up and I don't remember a lot of heat coming out of hers. So yes, there is more heat than I expected but I am pleased with the product.

It generates a bit of heat yes, but I've never had it overheat. Max ambient temp I used it in was I think 32C.

Very much so! I tested it by turning the fan off and my laptop was getting hotter.

Quite minimal. I also have a halogen lamp and it produces much more heat. Hope this helps!

Yes there is a lot of hot air coming out. Needs to go outside. Works great.

No, not at all. The only part that gets hot is where the heated air blows out of it.

There's a high and low heat setting. I find the low heat setting to be the equivalent of cool.

There is no heat. It is a bogus scam. Aside from a tiny bit of stimulation it is a useless rip off. Return it now. I waited too long and ended up giving it to some kids to play with

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

seems like all flat screens gen more heat than an old crt tv but I haven't noticed any excessive heat off this plasma. I love it so far. it is well ventilated on all sides though. I don't have it close to a wall.

There is a fan and it does give off quite a bit of heat. The fan speed is adjustable. We really enjoy ours!!

Yes they do produce heat. You decide based upon how much light you want/need.
