[QUOTE="David Karol, post: 83011, member: 3"] Re: Home building/living suggestions wanted. Sounds like he's using poorly designed fixtures. Heat is the biggest challenge in designing an LED fixture. If the LED is getting too hot, its usable light output will decrease quickly over time, effectively decreasing its lifespan. That's why the largest part of any fixture, even the retrofit 'light bulb' fixtures, is the heatsink. It's extremely important to get all the heat away from the LEDs. [/QUOTE]
