When I plugged mine in, all the outlets in the room got very, very hot, what gives?

I don't speak for her, but the side socket swivel outlet works just fine in the room I have it in.

We have had no such outlet trouble with our side socket. We use ours on the wall where our bed headboard is. We had to get this as we had so many cords from the heating blanket, two clock radios and two bedside lamps and when we pushed the headboard against the wall it would knock out the plugs. We no longer have that problem, and no outlet over heating either.

I usually keep it plugged up on my desk. I have only used it for a short time unplugged. It didn't seem to get any hotter then what was expected.

Mine did not show it was on but was very hot and was diffusing. I was worried because I could not get it to shut off or reset even by unplugging.

Very hot? It's normal for rechargebles to get warm, even very warm, but not hot...at least not too hot to the touch.

You must have gotten a defective one, they get hot. I've had a brand new one bad out of the package

Not HOT, maybe a little warm when it's been plugged in for a while. Sometimes the heat from your computer can transfer over or if it's working too hard it can generate heat. If it's getting really hot then I would see about getting a replacement.

Whenever using ANY power supply, there is always gonna be some warmth/heat coming from the unit regardless of whats connected to it. This is perfectly normal. Now if its HOT to the touch, that is not good. Replace immediately. Hope this helps. Be safe ....Chris.

Make sure there is continuity through the wires going to lamp. There is a lot of heat generated by the 50w halogen and the wires that are connected to lamp socket or the slot for the pins could be burned.

Not sure, mine never does that. If you just bought it I would swap for a new one. Or make sure your connection to the outlet is not loose maybe? Hope you figure it out!

I had mine plugged in for a few months - only using it occasionally - and one night when I wasn't using it, started flashing red in the middle of the night - it didn't turn the heat on while it did this. It didn't stop when I used the control so I unplugged it and replugged it in and it's been fine. Nothing in the manual about that. If it does it again I will call the manufacture.

Mine has never has done that. I noticed it gets very hot in use. I would call the manufacturer or check on their support page.

I did, but I'm not sure I should have. Nothing bad happened to the outlets, but it didn't seem to register a response. As I recall, the instructions said it was for GFCI outlets only - of course, I read it AFTER I used it in non-GFCI outlets. I hope this helps you.

Generally there is some heat felt on the adapter, that's normal; nevertheless, check that the fans are running free of any resistance, like dust or lack of lubricant; this has a tendency to increase heat on adapter and cord.

This is not a question. You overheated it. Use a lower power for a little longer and you will reduce the likelihood of overheating.

Well, my old Samsung it use to get hot. I think was from the charging process. Um, also when I try to charge it the plug in my phone broke. So i couldn't charge it. I do not have a solution to your problem. But if you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask. Please do not be too technical, I'm only 12
