If you can find the German hammered aluminum reflector that is the best you can buy. No hot spots created with those. My personal favorite and the ones i use because of its small foot print in comparison to those giant pendants is the Lumen Max 2 which they dont make any more.

Matt the fixture is not hot but warm to the touch. Runs btwn 92 and 93 degrees with both 400 MH on. One other thing I might mention is that the glass cover only slides out from one end of the fixture. If you have enough room in the right direction then its okay. I modified mine so it comes out both ends. Hope that helps.
