Anyone have experience mounting the ACKE grow light to the back of a Biocube 32? I'm wanting to use it as a fuge light. If so, how did you go about mounting it? Also, do these generate a lot of heat?

I used one of these on my 29 gallon biocube. It does put out some heat.

I used velcro tape and just ran it down each side. I left the top and bottom clear of tape in hopes that a tiny updraft would move some heat away. (no idea if that helped any) lol
