SAFC Neo gets really hot

So I drove 100+ miles with my Neo the other day, + it was getting really really warm. Like to the point that I had to put it in the air vent to cool it down. Does this happen to anyone else? No luck posting in the management forum.

My moms sirius satelite reciever gets very hot as well. The things been working for 2 years now. Its a compact little machine sure it will get hot, but its probably built to withstand it

It's where the radio goes. I have no radio so it's in there.

I'll double check the grounds.


My other SAFCII didn't get this hot + was in the same spot.

The Neo I had ran hot, well the screen area at least but that is to be expected. I mean if it is hot enough to burn you by touching it then yes its to hot, but slightly warm is normal. Also I am pretty sure you can adjust the screens brightness this may help a little bit, its been a while since I had mine so I cant remember if you can or not.
