Is it normal and perfectly fine that it's getting a little too hot after charging for 5 minutes?

I bought this charger and it gets hot too, I feared that the cable could be damaged from heat, so I stopped using it for phone charging and contacted customer support.

Yes it does get very hot while charging and mine only lasted for a month. I would say spend a little more and buy a durable one. That's wat I learnt the hard way.

I usually charge it about 4 hours and the battery will be hot to the touch. It should be good to go

As I recall, the red charging light goes out when it's charged. I felt no heat on the unit after leaving it plugged in when charged.

Try and position the phone so you get more air flow to it. Charging plus a cpu intensive program can generate some real heat fast. If it's in a weather proof case you may need a diffrent one that allows better air flow.

That is not normal. It shouldn't take more than a hour to recharge the batteries and if the batteries are hot, that is usually an indication of over charging.

Mine does not generate much heat. Phone remains comfortable to touch after a full charge. If it is too hot to handle, I would return.

Then there is something wrong with it. It should only take a few hours to fully charge. I don't know any other way other than with the charger it comes with. Sorry

I have not had any overheating issues. Sometimes the thunderbolt cable gets warm, though.

Mine doesn't overheat but it doesn't completely charge the batteries. I quit using it and bought 2 more of the type of chargers that come with tools.

I just touched mine with a tablet and 2 phones charging currently and it is not even warm.

Nope. I usually put one four to five devices together, just the normal temp, no overheat. I have been using the charger for about two months, no issues.

Mine gets a little warm while charging or when I have GPS and Bluetooth enabled and am downloading something, or am on the phone at the same time. It doesn't get scortching hot, though.

The radio/battery is warmer to touch when charging, but does't get hot. Charge in a ventilated area and do not over charge.

Im not sure if its healthy or not but its happening because electricity is being transferred and with it being in an enclosed space (your purse) the heat from it charging your phone has no were to go so it continues to build hotter and hotter. If I charge my phone while it's in my purse I normally have the battery inside my purse and the phone in and outside pocket. That seems to work really well for me. :)

I leave mine plugged in all the time and it's cool right now. Not even warm. The charger that came with mine originally didn't work at all. This one is perfect!

Anne, it's probably not usual, but I've only charged it once for 3 hours. Still going strong.

I never got hot with mine, unless it was (like Matthew said) heating the battery up for other reasons. Sitting near a window, heat duct, etc while charging. Otherwise i never got hot using the Nokia Qi puck.
