Has it problems with overheating?

Andrea, It does not have a variable heat setting, therefore it could possibly burn components if you're holding the device to the component for an extended period. I've had no issues up to this point with mine, but I've only used one of the multiple heads that come with the package. Each one will distribute heat differently. I hope this helps.

I have not had enough use to say weather the tip will melt. But the tips are easy to replace! I had a much "cheaper" Weller iron and the tip melted all the way down during a project (Radio). 3 each: Weller Soldering Iron (SP23L) This is the one! It is for "light" duty.

I have not had a problem with mine yet...It has worked fine since I purchased it a few months ago.

Robert, I have no problem with overheating. The ventilation holes seem adequate, but that's just for me. I hope this helps.

It can run pretty hot, but I've never had any performance issues from overheating. If you're really that worried about it, buy a cheap cooling pad. Mine cools it down easily even while gaming.

Have not had an overheating issue. Can turn on turbo fan if you do. I use mine for automotive test equipment so it sits on cooler metal cart tops or travels with me and is used on auto floors, dashes, seats, and fenders. Probably the time in service is much shorter than gaming is for you.

So far i have had no problems with any over heating. I have had this cover for about 2 months.

I have not had any problems yet. But I think the unit is not starting as fast as it did at first. But it is still heating as it should.

Mine gets really hot, that has never been a problem. It actually gets hotter that I had anticipated.

That hasn't been my experience. I leave the cover on all the time - no problem with overheating. I love this cover!

Yes I have. Mine gets hot enough that it is uncomfortable to hold. I reboot it when that happens and it seems to cure the problem for a while

Hello, I have never had a problem with it over heating but I am also not constantly online. If you are constantly online then I am assuming it might become there are no holes for ventilation. Hope that helps

I run it consecutively 4-5 times with only a slight pause inbetween, and I've never had it overheat. I've owned it for over 2 years now and it still runs fine.

NO, I haven't had any problems with it. I use mine several times a week and it's been great.

So far, no. There has been no such problem. Have you contacted the manufacturer about it? If not, why not?

I have not had any problem yet with it overheating. I used it to laminate a bunch of table menus for a restaurant. Though, as soon as I am done with it, I unplug it and let it cool before putting it away.

Mine shut down from overheating too and it cools VERY well. The cooling does not seem to be the issue with this device. But the fan on mine broke after only a month. And the wire got caught in the fan. It's simply poorly designed. But cools very well.

I do not have any problems with my computer over heating, but I did replace the power supply when I first purchased the computer to put in a more powerful supply for gaming.
