Mine never heated up at all. Some heat won't hurt it if it's slighty warm if it's very hot so it burns you I would stop using it contact Kodak see what they can do for you.

No. It builds up heat. I was told by my computer man never to leave them on when other computer components are on even if you are not using them.

I notice that my machine gets a bit hot but has never shut down as a result. I have not had it on for more than a minute - usually much less.

I do not think u will have any problem of overheating. If u check your plug during operation & it is not warm u r good!

Ive used the unit several times, and for a good/long amount of time each use. So far I have not had any overheating issues.

Yes there is a problem with yours. I've had mine since its issue and it never gets hot -warm at most when playing extended games or videos. I have a Surface Pro 2 now, but I keep the Portege as a very reliable backup and for occasional ripping or burning (no pun intended) of CDs.

Yes - provided the device is 1800 W or less. Too high wattage can lead to gradual heating and then overheating. Check the user's manual of the device that you want to plug into the Universal Adapter to verify the wattage and other relevant info.

Whenever using ANY power supply, there is always gonna be some warmth/heat coming from the unit regardless of whats connected to it. This is perfectly normal. Now if its HOT to the touch, that is not good. Replace immediately. Hope this helps. Be safe ....Chris.

Yes. I have another heating pad that does the same thing. I don't believe it is anything to worry about.

No, that does not sound normal at all. Mine has never heated up noticeably, even when transferring hundreds of gigabytes. Sounds to me like there's something the matter with yours.

I treated some electronics with it and they were fine, but I didn't treat a computer. I'm not sure if that would be okay or not. Loading it is very quick and easy, you just want to make sure there is space around stuff so that the heat gets to everything. It takes about 6 or 7 hours, about 5 or 6 to get up to temperature and then another hour that everything should stay at that temperature. Hope this helps.

No. It actually heats and rises to pressure quite quickly. I've used it on a low burner setting with no problem.

I did not have any heat problems. My problem was that the unit had to be on before connecting to the dock which created a power surge when connecting which in turn created other problems that called for repair.

Nope! I've used mine without turning it off, or taking breaks, for well over an hour and haven't felt it get hot yet.

Mine has never has done that. I noticed it gets very hot in use. I would call the manufacturer or check on their support page.

In my experience, the heatsink gets too hot to touch, so I would be wary of improper airflow.
