Mine does not heat up much to the touch. Maybe a defective unit??

Cityboy · Answer

mine does not do that, i have them all night on and it does not get warm

ThunderRazor · Answer

Mine gets warm. Never so hot that it is hard to hold the controller. It seems to not get as hot when not at high brightness settings. Also I have one stuck to my TV and seems to get less hot. It hasn't been a concern for me.

It might be faulty wiring. Your going to get some warmth, it is the control. But it should not be HOT .I hope this helps you buddy.

Neither of my units gets hot to the touch. I would return the unit for a new one.
