a 30W GaN is not expected to become scalding hot during normal operation. no other device in my lineup - that draws identical wattage - elicits an identical response.

I've been using this exact 535 (A1366) since november.

the only thing that has stood out, is how hot the gan brick can become when charging. after a full cycle, the unit seems to rival surface temperatures on the sun.

now, if we could only get them to talk some sense into their cousin, ar-kansas.
