TS1713 how hot does your charger get when charging

   Wondering how hot does the magsafe 2 power adaptor get when charging

I assume you mean the charging BLOCK
the answer depends on ambient temp of course, however typically warm to moderately warm.

  • How hot does your Helix get under heavy load?

    I've had my Helix for a few days now and have finally got around to installing some software on it.  I have the i7 with 256gb SSD and 8GB RAM.. so far I've been very impressed with how 'snappy' it all runs and besides a few annoyances with the touchscreen/pen not working correctly 100% of the time am very happy with the system.
    Anyways, I wanted to see how the Helix would run when pushed really hard so I had Solidworks running (3d modeling/CAD software) and Netflix going on on an external monitor.  The back of the Tablet became super hot--hot enough that you would definitely not want to touch it (let alone try to hold it) or have it on your lap.  I installed TP fan control and it read that the CPU got up to 86 degrees Celsius.  Granted this is not representative of normal operating conditions, but I'm concerned about how hot it got.  Has anyone else noticed their Helix's running really hot under heavy load? Is this normal?
    Solved!

    I'm in the same boat as you on this. It can get very bad sometimes. Under light use, it never get's as cool as I feel it should. I go through the currently running applications and try to run as minimally as possible, but it still creates a fair amount of heat. My battery life is around 6 hours with both batteries too. I definitely don't get the 8-9 hours it's supposed to be getting.
    I think the 10 hrs thing was for the i5 model. It's still five times longer than my X201t with 4cell battery, so I'm happy with this. Shorter battery time is something you have to live with if you are going to use an i7 machine on the go.
    I also heard that actually the RTM version of the Helix IS the revised version from the initial batch(or the previewers' batch)... I heard the first machines were truely HOT.
    [Added] Also, I think long term heat damage will be of less concern in case of the Helix. The business already has many years of slate tablets with standard CPUs that did have problems with heat(namely, Asus EP121 which had its LCD turn yellow because of heat, and Samsung Slate 7 which had serious throttling issues in its early days). If Lenovo HAS intelligence to learn from the history, which I want to believe they do, they should probably would have dealt with that, considering this machine may actually be a second revision. And even if I don't believe Lenovo, I still trust in Yamato Lab.

  • How hot does your iSight get?

    My iSight gets very very hot. Is this normal?

    Hello Chris,
    To add to John's words...
    They do get surprisingly warm. They draw power all the time they are connected.
    When it, the camera, starts to drip down the front of the screen there - Then its time to worry!

  • How long does your iphone take to charge?

    How long does your iphone take to charge when at various battery levels remaining?
    When your iphone is at 10% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    When your iphone is at 20% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    When your iphone is at 50% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    (Assuming that you charge the phone when the phone is off using the Apple USB cable or dock through a wall power outlet)

    Usually 1 1/2 Hours tops.
    When your iphone is at 20% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    Around the Same
    When your iphone is at 50% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    Thirty Minutes.
    I think if it is taking you 6 to 7 hours then something is wrong here. Either the battery is flawed, the cable or dock is flawed, or something is wrong with the outlet. It should not take that long.

  • How long does your battery take to charge?

    this is only my second laptop and the battery on my first one went pretty quickly, so i dont really know long its supposed to take to charge
    so... how long does it take, and how long does it take for the battery to drain

    Im not sure how long exactly it takes to charge it. I would say about 2 hours maybe 3 at the most. I use mine plugged in ost of the time, so its not unplugged much. I get great battery life out of mine. I had it off AC for about 3 hours the other night and still had 40 mins left according to the battery monitor. This is with the brightness all the way up.

  • How hot does a CPU get before its overheating?

    Macbook Pro 15" (Early 2011)
    Mac OS X: 10.7.2
    Processor: 2 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    I've had my macbook early 2011 for a few months now, I have noticed some high temp on the CPU, GPU and the fans dont seem to cool it down by much. Its gotten to the point where i have a external dual-fan for it. As i type this all i have open is Safari, Skype, FileVault2 and LittleSnitch and my Temps are as below
    **These are with the external fan
    CPU 43C
    CPU Heatsink 33C
    Enclosure Bases (1,2,3) 29C
    GPU 36C
    GPU Diode 36C
    Heatsink 35C
    Internal Fan Speeds
    Right: 3600 RPM
    Left: 3608 RPM
    Not sure if this is good or not I looked up the regular cpu temps and it said it should be running from 10-35C. Sometimes when i have Youtube and other applications running it can get to 50C+ with the fan. If I play Steam games on it i can hit 72C on low graphic settings. With Minecraft and everything else closed it hits 45-65C (Also I have found java doesnt run well in Lion, any suggestions for making Java faster too?) Also I rendered/exported a short video (about 1-2min) and it heated up to around 65C in seconds. For what i run i expect high CPU temps but if i do a full shutdown and boot it up the next morning and only use safari, i dont see any reason why it gets up to 45C instantly when the apple site says 10-35C on regular usage.

    It varies with the version of the MBP, but it's generally accepted that the computer will do a safety shutdown if the temps approach 100C. Therefore the failure temp must be something above 100C.

  • Does your X1900XT get very hot?

    And how hot does (can) it get?
    While trying it in a Windows computer I had its case open and decided to feel the back of the ATI board. It was very hot so I am not sure if that is normal for X1900XT or not?

    Thank you both for your replies. Yes, there is hot
    air coming out but any higher-end card would generate
    that, no? I'm just trying to compare to my other
    cards I had in a PC since I do not recall them being
    this hot.
    Then again this is ATI, I never held them in high
    regards when it comes to making neither hardware or
    software. Too bad the other choice (NV Quadro FX
    4500) is way too expensive.
    The Nvidia would be cooler, 110 watts vs. 132 watts. If hot air is coming out, it means the fan is working, and the vents are not obstructed, so it should be OK.

  • How much does CLAD cost? When can I sit for such an examination?

    I am interested in obtaining a CLAD certificate. I live in Beirut. I have found some test centers from http://www7.pearsonvue.com/Dispatcher?application=VTCLocator&action=actStartApp&v=W2L&cid=383 but I didnt get a reply when I asked them about cost/time.
    Can you help me by answering the questions?
    How much does CLAD cost? When can I sit for such an examination?
    P.S. I've been using LabVIEW for 5 month already.

    Hi A.A.A.,
    I'm glad to hear you are interested in pursuing your Associate Developer Certification. With regards to pricing and scheduling your exam, I recommend you contact the Certification specialists at your local National Instruments office. I believe that is National Instruments Arabia. You can send an email with your questions to [email protected] or phone # +961-1-33 28 28, and they will work with you to purchase and schedule your CLAD exam.
    Five months is a great start at familiarizing yourself with the LabVIEW environment. However, I definitely recommend taking a look at the exam preparation materials to ensure you are familiar with all the topics and terminology you could be tested on.

  • How frequently does your Mac go on the fritz?

    Today, I right clicked on a file on my desktop. It didn't respond at first, so I right-clicked again and then the beach ball appeared and it stayed that way. I think it was Finder stalling out. I tried switching and launching other programs, tried logging out, and finally tried CMD-option-Esc. All of them didn't work. Finally I was forced to hold down the power button to force shut down the system. Booted it back up and everything was back to normal again.
    This is the first time this has ever happened since I recieved my Mini around early April. So I'm just doing a reality check with this post. This is my first Mac.
    How frequently does your Mac act up to the point where you are forced to force shut down or pull the plug (the absolute last resort)?

    Even then, Peter's advice may be a little bit over the top. There a loads of Macs out there that rarely get their permissions fixed, probably don't have cron tasks run at all, that don't have copies of any of the general purpose utilities such as OnyX or Cocktail, and where the users don't have crashes or kernel panics either.
    The real skill in maintaining OS X is to resist doing things that you don't need to do, because it largely looks after itself. From time to time, you might notice a problem, the symptoms of which will generally help determine what needs to be done in order to rectify it.
    But if a user is determined to do anything routinely, it should not be to alter the general use of the system (ie, not to suddenly decide to leave it on 24/7 not sleeping so the cron tasks can run), but to use MacJanitor maybe once a month to do the daily, weekly and monthly tasks all in one go, and to fix permissions after an install that has asked for an admin password. The user might also be wise to keep a copy of OnyX, Cocktail or YASU (YASU being the best for the novice user because it is very difficult to misuse) and to use it from time to time as and when the system exhibits poor overall performance or when it has trouble opening or running applications.
    Which is not to really contradict Peter's advice, but to say that much that is said on the subject of maintaining Macs and MacOS in good working order is overstated. A low-key/light demand attitude to this aspect of caring for systems is typically rather better - not least because it's typically not a cron task or a permission fault that causes a problem - more commonly hacks, hardware/peripherals or software.

  • How much usage are you getting per charge?

    Hello all!
    I have heard stories from others about crappy battery life, so I decided to keep track of the last 2 charging periods to see how much usage I was getting per charge.
    So far, I have had over 9 hours usage and over 2 days standby time on each of the last 2 charges. Probably 25% talk and 75% internet, email, iPod.
    How is your battery doing?

    I had to reset my phone, because it shut off as I ran the ipod and left wifi on in my leather case and the unit decided to "chill" literally. Everything was back on 10 minutes later. That being said, with no meter to look at,
    Today I made at least 20-25 phone calls, the longest about 15 minutes. I left my bluetooth on all day, with wifi on probably 5-6 hours. Throw in a good 2 hours of IPOD usage and about 20-30 minutes at diferrent times showing of the iphone to a couple vendors and a customer. My phone was in use for 12 hours(what I would consider pretty heavy usage) and I recharged this evening in about 3 hours.
    I am pretty pleased with the battery time. Tonight a recharged the battery and had the little space left. After reading another post I unplugged the cord from the AC adapter and plugged into my macbook and synced it and I now have the green glow everyone is so eager to see.

  • How fast does your Windows boot up?

    Also more fast bootup stuff... Search google for XP SP2 Beta... install that > ive found it great so far.. MS has got it so it disables a load of unneeded services so PC will boot / shut down quicker.. Remember it is only a BETA atm.. so use at your own risk.. ive had no probs tho.. pc seems quicker
    Cheers.

    Thanks Flam3h, it most definitely is the printer spooler.  The problem is that if you set it to manual, your printer will not work.  When you go to print something, Windows tells you that you must first install a printer.  This is the only service I've found where the manual setting will not work.  You either have to set it as automatic or go into services and start it each time you want to print.  I'm just wanting to know if anyone else has this problem and knows of a work around to allow the manual setting to work.
    I don't know if I'm ready to try service pack 2 yet.  If I do, I will definitely make a ghost first

    N95 - Does your camera clicks when auto focus (half-pressed)?
    When i press the camera button half way through it makes a noticeable "click" noise after locking on an object.
    It doesn't make the clicking noise when i press the camera button one time without manually auto focus.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Yep, exactly that.
    Green - Focus lock acheived - OK to take picture and it should come out in focus.
    Red - No Focus lock - will still take a shot if you fully press shutter button though.Message Edited by luckieb on 27-Apr-200708:37 PM
