Even with a well ventilated room, I'm afraid that this thing will burn itself out in a year with my gaming preferences. Keep this in mind but this can be a pretty good docking station regardless. But I'm too concerned about this thing burning itself to death in about a year

It worked fine for a while connected to a monitor, power cord and small speaker. Then a few weeks ago my monitor stopped working even though it worked well with two other computers. Checked it out and found it to be very hot. When it cooled the montor worked fine until the device heated up again in less than 5 minutes. Went back to the old device.

Ensure that the mini dock is placed in a well-ventilated area and not obstructed. Overheating can occur if the device is not receiving adequate airflow. Extreme ambient temperatures can contribute to overheating. Ensure the operating environment is within the recommended temperature range. Make sure the mini dock is receiving the correct power supply through a power adapter. Using an incorrect or underpowered adapter can lead to overheating. Contact our Technical Support Team, if you have any question regarding the 4K60 Elite USB-C Triple-Monitor 10Gbps Mini Dock. Their information can be found on our website under the Support tab. Thank you.

Ran super hot and could only connect 1 FHD monitor

I couldn't get two full HD to connect through this device. Only one monitor would connect, no matter what I tried. I was using a new, high the gaming laptop from MSI that ran Windows 11. The heat this docking unit generated when connected to the thunderbolt port on my laptop was rediculous. I seriously thought it was going to melt and cause a fire it got so hot. I stuffed up returning it and got a powered thunderbolt docking station that actually does work and can display 4 external monitors.

This dock requires a DisplayPort v1.4 Alt Mode-enabled port that supports Multi-Stream Transport (MST) in order to output to dual or triple displays. Some laptops, even high-performance models, may have USB-C or Thunderbolt ports that don’t support MST for multiple external displays, which could explain why only one monitor was detected.
As for the heat you noticed, the dock can become warm during high data or display output due to its compact aluminum design, which naturally dissipates heat.

Loses connection at times for second screen, also the Ethernet speeds lag from time to time. When it is working correctly its great, but when its acting up its frustrating at best.

If you’re using high-resolution displays, try reducing the refresh rate or resolution slightly to see if stability improves. High refresh rates and resolution require significant bandwidth, which could impact connectivity with multiple monitors.
If possible, try testing the Ethernet connection with another network to see if the issue persists. Some routers or network settings can contribute to occasional connection drops.

would have preferred 3 HDMI ins, but got an adapter for the 1 Display port - passthrough charge is only 100W so it doesn't charge the work Dell laptop (takes 130W) - otherwise, works quite well for my 3 monitor setup and is much faster than my prior docking station for data transfer
