LED Lights

Do they make more heat or what?

Hey

As far as I know LEDs do heat up. Hopwever, to really affect temperatures in cases, there would have to be many of them. Usually cold cathode lights are used instead. Although they should remain relatively cool, mine heat up as well....although it's nothing drastic.

LEDs only make a negligible amount of heat. No need to worry about it unless you have more than about 20 big ones (5mm or above) in a confined space.

how about like maybe 4 sunbeam lights?

Thanks guys

Even if you have like 20 LEDs in a tiny place, it wont result in a catastrophic heat issue so you'll be ok

sunbeams produce more heat right? i tried putting my hands on it and it burns!

1. dont worry no heat problems will arise from LED useage

2. dont touch the bright and shinny things in your computer
