my ipod gets really hot

kalch · 12-14-2007, 02:47 AM

When the ipod is connected in the centre compartment it gets really hot.

Is this normal?

Yes. Doesn't your iPod get hot after running for awhile?

kalch · 12-14-2007, 02:49 AM

not as hot as when in the car. my shuffle gets hot too

Maybe it gets hot because it's docked... I only listen to my iPod via the car or on my Bose Sound Dock. With both applications, the iPod gets quite warm.

I have never noticed my 80GB iPod Classic getting hot.

Do you have the center compartment vent open? I assume it's cold in Toronto and you have the heat running. Perhaps you have the heat vent open in your center compartment.

Yep - that was going to be my suggestion. That's actually hard to remember... I try to do with with the changing of the clock. Fall = close the vent to console, Spring = open the vent..
