It is warm but not 2700k. The intensity of light is not same as halogen bulb under cabinet lights

No, since the warmer has a switch that automatically goes off after (some time?/temperature reached?). You HAVE to actually do two button presses to start the warmer (one to reset, one to start). It would be unfeasible (do to difficulty to disassemble) to work around this. Would probably also result in safety hazard.FWIW--I like it, but have poor reliability. Last one I purchased I purchased the extend warranty.

The lighting is not really bright. We put it in a big bedroom so we had other light sources. Our main reason for purchasing this item was for the heater. Our room has no heat and figured this was a great option. We love it!

No problem lighting heater. Hold button down for about 10 seconds, release and depress button again. Residual gas from first press should help firing it right up.

You may but have in mind that the turn-on switch is located in the opposite side of the junction box. If you keep the warmer on all the time it won't Make any difference.

I've only used the lights that come with the kit. They do get a bit warm but I don't do a lot of long term picture taking, so it's not an issue for me.

You have to flip the switch to the on position. After that you just have to touch the face of the ring to the "glass" part of the lantern and it should light up.

The switch is an in-wire wheel. Turn it counter-clockwise until you hear/feel the click that will cause the red light to come on. The warmer is now active.

I had same problem. Keep pushing the Temp. button until all the lights on top row are lit. The only light on bottom row that is lit will be the 20 degree one. Works great. Hope this helps

It gets warm, but not nearly hot enough to be a fire hazard, even if it is on for a long time.

It will take a few mins to come to full brightness depending on the temp, but it will start. It has an electronic ballast, only magnetic ballasts hum.

The modeling light is not that bright, but you could make adjustments in your settings or use other lights also

The light is always on for me also, never noticed it to get much above slightly warm. However mine is mounted in a fairly open area so may just cool itself easier.

Actually, I'm not sure. The light diffusing cover is plastic and maybe a halogen lamp might prove too hot and damage or melt it.
