Just got my unit in finally. I plugged it in to power.. and had it on my computer USBC port... nothing else in it, not even using it. This sucker got hot.. hot enough that I could barely hold it long. Wasn't even using it, at all. Got me worried, which is why I am here.
Why.. if it has no inputs and no outputs.. just sitting there, does this thing get so hot? I could see under load, with the internal CPUs churning maybe.. but nothing going on but plugged in.
Yah.. add me to the list of very worried there is something not quite right with thermal dynamics and cooling.
Would love for a BM rep to respond and say that it is normal, and not to worry about it.
