The lamp can get hot very quickly. The ballast makes this buzzing noise that can be annoying if installed in quiet rooms. The lamp can toggle between 3 different color temperatures however, I wasn't able to find a way to default to one, every time you turn the light on and off it will switch to a different color temperature, I wish there was a setting so I can change the default color temperature. If there is please let me know! Other than that, this celling fan is a good addition to my home office space.
