i like the device pretty well, but gott dam does it get hot, sometimes hot enough to force a protective shut down. it seems to be worst when i’m using it as a hotspot while passively charging it.
is there any way to reduce charging current so i dont explode the battery or whatever damage this heat is going to cause? or do i just have to keep this thing propped up on a fan while it’s charging.

I don’t get that, be careful, might be a bad device? Also might want to try other chargers
it didnt used to do this though, it worked flawlessly until about 8 months ago or so i’d say. i’ll try a new charger ig.
How many watts are you pulling when charging? Also, using your phone as a hotspot generates quite a bit of heat too
i was kinda hoping i could limit charging current at the phone end so that im only using about as much as the hotspot. do you know of any way to do that or do i just have to get a lower watt charger.
If it’s not part of the firmware, I think you’re out of luck.
I would get a 5 watt charger, should be the lowest possible
