How hot can T5 lights get?

T5 fluorescent lights can reach temperatures between 100°F to 140°F (38°C to 60°C) during operation, depending on factors such as the ambient temperature and ventilation. While they are more efficient and emit less heat compared to other lighting types, it is still important to ensure proper ventilation to prevent overheating. Regular checks for dust accumulation on the fixtures can also help maintain optimal performance and safety.
