I was listening to it today for a couple hours and when I went to take it off the kit, I noticed that it was quite warm. Any tips on how to keep the temperature in it down?
I'll probably be buying a small fan in the morning if I can find one. |

| Turn the brightness on the display down as much as you can. |

| They run hot even if you turn down the brightness on the display. The XTR1 runs even hotter when it's in the Power Pod. I think that's just the way they are, although I'm concerned that they won't last as long as they might. In your house, you could turn a fan on it to keep it cool, but that won't work in your car. |

| you should see how hot the receiver gets in the boombox,so i just leave the boombox dock open instead of closing it,and it doesnt seem to get as hot.now i just hope the weight of the receiver doesnt wear down the cradle. |
