I haven't noticed this. Will keep an eye on it though and let you know if this happens.

When just charging it is ok but if you are using the laptop and plugged in then yes it gets hot, so does the laptop!!

That is not a good sign. The AC adaptor does get warm (not hot) but if you are smelling something burning I would turn it off. That is not normal.

I have had mine for over a year and it has worked perfectly. I live in Texas so very few really cold days but I have no complaint. I agree with the twisting in the plug thing, I have to make sure I connect well but there is a light indicator.

Ok after I tried days I don't feel any heat from unit. May be I don't full load the device.

I ran an AC unit off this that was rated at 6.3 amps (+ surge) and it got slightly warm but not a concern........if you can afford it, i would get the next one up from this unit......however, this may work, but the hotter it gets the less life it may have/ possible fire hazzard

For AC adapters there are only a few things to worry about: the voltage, the form factor of the plug, and the amperage the adapter will supply without overheating. The voltage and form factor have to be the same, and the amperage has to be greater than or equal to what your device draws.

I am using 12 of the 16 ports and it does not get hot. In fact it is barely warm at all

If it was me, I would buy another AC Adapter and cable. It is always a good idea to have a spare. I have four. Carl Mauldin

yea. it's probably defective. it works good on my end. no issues, no freezing. The connection might have a failure or switch the power cord. That might have the failure. Test it out.

I do not have that problem with mine. It only takes a few seconds for mine to give any tempature.

I haven't had any troubles with it yet. I've kept it on overnight and for 24 hours at a time a few times. The adapter doesn't seem to get very hot. Its just powering an electromagnet so its probably not enough energy to cause much of a problem. I've had this for about 2 months now and it seems to still work fine.

I had to get the AC adapter extension. I bought it on Amazon for I believe around $2 or so.

No. Please make sure you have appropriate power pluged in. Heat is usually a sign of over amped supply

well I never had problem of ac adaptor with mine although I returned the laptop back due to excessive movement of the cursor or would I say the mouse was so fast that it kept on dragging app on the interface when I move it around to click, anyway try check if your ac adapter is working by plugging it to the laptop and check if the laptop battery shows signs of charging by looking at the right hand lower corner screen where battery icon is to see if it shows or says battery charging, if nt then knw the ac adapter is nt working before you can think of replacing it with a new ac adapter.

I didn't notice this before but it is true. It feels warm but nothing to be concerned about. I opened it and found 2 one watt resistors inside which could be the reason for the rise in temperature. The two resistors were shiny as new. Two different brand remotes I own do not show that condition, they do not have large resistors.

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.
