Do Lumishore lights get hot?
Return to list of questions Lumishore lights, properly installed, should not overheat. It is a myth that LEDs do not produce heat. They do. Unlike traditional lighting where heat is produced in front of the light source the electrical activity creating heat occurs at the back of the LED unit. It is this heat and electrical management that is at the heart of the Lumishore HICOB LED array. In normal use the lights should not overheat however in the event that they do through prolonged exposure to air they will switch themselves off to conserve LED life.
