30c device and 32c battery with a two server fan wind tunnel. Without the wind tunnel it was 47c-50c and on a warranty replacement device. I’d hoped it was solely a temp issue. Running battery, plugged in, WiFi only (no Ethernet).

- I was thinking that too, but its too late for me to return it if I wanted to. Im also on my second one. Got a new one through a warranty claim and right out of the box it started acting this way. At least the first one worked for a month or so before this issue.
