Cooling Tip: Using a wire mesh stand to improve passive heat dissipation.
We all know the internal fans do a great job of pulling air through the side vents when the unit is fast-charging or running a heavy load. However, the bottom plastic casing can still absorb and radiate a lot of heat.
Instead of leaving my unit sitting directly on a solid wooden floor or a flat desk (which traps the heat underneath), I placed it on a small, sturdy wire mesh rack.
Allowing ambient air to flow continuously underneath the flat bottom of the unit drastically improves passive heat dissipation. The cooler the outer casing stays, the less the internal fans have to ramp up to their loud maximum speeds!
