    I'll leave one on for an hour or so tomorrow and verify...good point. Some leds can and will get hot but I really don't think these will.

    Tell that the LED light strips I have that get so hot it heats the backing glue to liquid and the light falls off.

    The strips used in the compartments of the cars we work on never get hot at all. Or the ones in one of my safes.

    I'm certainly no LED lighting expert, but I know there are different styles and manufacturers for sure. I know that warm light LEDs get hotter than shit, the ones I put in my last house did. These lights are white, and the same manufacturer also makes patient lights and flood lights that are on for extended periods of time...and do not get hot.

    So, that's why I edited and said I'd check to make sure...

    I think the ones I bought that get hot are cheap, but thought I'd throw it out there just in case. Things like brake lights and courtesy lights that don't stay on long, it probably doesn't matter.

    So, you’re saying it’s the tier-1 lights that don’t get hot... are these tier-1?? I don’t take free stuff of a lesser designation.

    As great kazoo said, it transferred to this thread, but pwt and cult was added.

    Time to hit the rec center and try my tier1 racquet!
