very hot during charge with dc

[Marco Bianchi]

hi,
i notice that cube gets very hot during charging the battery, when computer is on and
i m on internet or
I m working with a program. If I charge while computer is off this does not.If I use cube normaly after charge, it doesn’t become hot, even if with musical programs which they are quite heavy.
is it better to charge it with type.c? thanks

It is the same for me, and it is perfectly normal : Charging while running the computer draws a lot of power inside the tiny case, the Lithium Polymer battery warms up while charging, he quicker the charge, the warmer they get. And with the CPU running, the backlight,etc. there is not enough heat dissipation to cool down the unit.

It’s not an issue, just an annoyance !

thanks for your answer, I thought maybe with a fast charger type c is better or not?

For me it’s the same behavior with the original charger and with the iVoler USB-C charger…
