Do they get hot like the halogens?

No! The LED units, while not cool during operation, is no where near as hot as the halogen bulbs that I replaced.

Not at all. I ordered one first to install in my RV as the old Halogens got so hot I was worried about fires. The LED's are cool to the touch even after half an hour. I eventually replaced all of my halogens in my RV with LED.

Not at all and they last for a long time. Halogens bulbs burn every couple of months. I bought these LED lamps 20 months ago and they are still working even tho they have been On 15 hours a day. I highly recommend this product.

No they do not get hot. No, the print is clear even after months of use. They are beautiful !

Nope. They run fairly cool. Way way way cooler than a 60 watt - which is not as bright as this one.

Normally yes - they are only warm to the touch. But if you leave them on too long they can get hot to the touch. Good luck!

Yes, they do get hot. I have not had one that the pot does not get hot. I love this one!!

I don't notice that they give off a lot of heat. We have them in our glass globe pendant lights over our kitchen island and another set in our sconces in our family room (up high.) Not sure I would notice the heat factor based on the location but I think they are actually more subdued than regular bulbs. They cast a really nice yellow/goldish hue.

Halogen bulb GU10 (they come with the fixture). These bulbs get extremely hot and need to be away from flammable surfaces. The heat generated from the bulbs made it very warm in my pantry. I replaced mine with LED bulbs from Amazon and it was well worth it.

These lights will save on electricity as opposed to halogens. Also these lights do not give off as much heat as halogens. However these lights are not truly dimmable as compared to halogens. Look at the lumens to compare brightness. These bulbs are as bright as 50W halogens.

No they don't get hot at all... i had them on for over 5 hrs for a shoot and it was fine.

Depends on the type of bulb used. If you use compact fluorescent bulbs, then no, just warm. If you use incandescent bulbs then maybe, depending on the wattage of the bulb.

You can run 'em 24/7 if you need to. They get warm, but not hot. I'm guessing a bigger issue is that they (intentionally) put in some UV LEDs to simulate sunlight, so you may want to have UV absorbing glasses when working around the light.

The package comes with two 250W halogen bulbs. The color temperature is warm. The bulbs generate a lot of heat. The metal reflectors are too hot to touch.

The halogen bulbs get very hot and use lots of electricity. Led bulbs get slightly warm and are very energy efficient.

They seem to get hot enough to prevent the build up. Although they don't get as hot as halogen or hid lights. One thing I have noticed when they get dirty they seem to effect the been pattern more than with other lights. Not a complaint just an observation.

Yes, they do. Only when coming straight from the oven are they hot. I love our set and had it for a year with no complaints.

I think so they do get extremely hot so you might have to hold them up a little. I've never tried it.

If you compare them with regular light bulbs, then yes they do - like most if not all halogen light bulbs.
