Are these lights a warm or cool light?

I would say they are neutral, maybe slightly cool. But not that harsh bluish tone that you usually associate with LEDs. I attribute that to the cover over the lights.

They're on the cool side of neutral. Not extremely blue like many LEDs, but cool.

I would definitely call them on the cool side. About the only thing I don't like about this light is that the light is much bluer than the nearby light fixture (with CFL bulbs), which is kind of distracting when both are on.

It's warm. If you're worried about the Halogen-effect, you can rest assured it's not there. It's just a nice, bright light that doesn't get too physically hot. It's a very handy and versatile item to have. We love to use it to play Scrabble, long after the sun's down, when we're out camping -- without having to plug it in. :)

I've never noticed them being hot. I can't quite picture what you have in mind for the tablecloth, but I have two strands hanging in our bedroom and it is enough light to read by - so they are fairly bright.

The lights run cool. You can touch them while they are on. Hope that helps.

I have found it to be a very bright, white light. I would not call it "warm". Hope this helps.

No these lights put out very little heat at 12v, they are cool to the touch

The lights are pretty bright that make my pc look cool they are not intrusive bright at least I don't think they are from my prospective .Hope this helps .

I forgot the actual temperature of these lights, but they are a bright white. They are not the warm (yellow), nor they cool (blue) tinted lights. I hope this helps. For the price, these things are awesome! I use a set almost every day for back up lights on my lifted truck, plus I have them on my other toys for back-up and side rock lights..

They are LEDs so you shouldn't have a problem. I didn't notice them getting all that hot. Granted, I haven't left them on for hours at a time and then tested.

These are LED lights and do not produce much heat at the lens (e.g. cool to the touch). Regarding the housing, I would ensure some minimum air circulation to dissipate heat vs. tightly enclosed, but there is very little heat output.

They are "warm" which is a misnomer because 3000 Kelvin isn't a yellow "warm" light but a more white light... Not quite flourescent.. but definitely not warm. All the LED bulbs use this warm/soft terminology which is very poor and misleading. "Soft" is 2700 kelvin which is warmer (although still not as warm as incandescent.)

I'd have to say toward the cooler end of the spectrum. We have them under a ladies bathroom vanity and kitchen cabinet. My wife likes them in her make-up area which doubles as a sewing and craft area. Kitchen application is pleasing as well. I guess if you're looking for a very, very soft light these are not it.

Relatively warm. It's still an LED, so you won't get the incandescent glow, but it's rated at 3000K, which means much warmer than something rated 5000K.

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 would say that it is definitely cool.it is extremely bright, and since these are LED lights there really are not bulbs that can be exchanged to change the apparent warmth of the light.

While still "warm white," they are slightly cooler than the traditional incandescent bulbs. I would estimate about 3000K vs. the usual 2700K. However they are not in the "daylight" category (6000K). You might notice a slight difference if you mixed bulb types.

I've had three of these for over a year (and doing a great job) and while they do get warm near the lights, I don't think I would classify them as hot. That said, I also don't have anything around them so they get plenty of air.
