What happens if this gets overloaded? Too hot and burns up?

It has a built in circuit breaker. And at least try not to overload it, with LED's. You should take your total potential watts of LED's and add a 20% safety margin. If total watt load will be 200 watts, you want a transformer with at least a 240 watt total load specification. Got it? Peter

Its done, buy a new higher wattage one, add up the load of your LEDs and get an appropriate rated power supply

The answer is do not overload the transformer. The transformer is rated at 60 watts and it is not difficult to determine the load of the LED lighting attached. If you are not familiar or comfortable with these calculations you should not install this product.

There should be an overload breaker, but there is a thermostat that you set and the heater will not exceed the set temperature. I have never had any problems with overheating with either heater (I own two of these, one for two winters).

As the other users commented, it's either your stove (not so likely) or your outlet (more likely). If you run low voltage the amps will increase and you'll get a very hot cord. Or, if the outlet is in poor condition your not getting good contact between the plug and the outlet. This also can heat things up. Could be a short in your heater too. But whatever the reason, it should not be that way. My cord has no overheating issues.

it will burn up,you could use a 12v. transformer to reduce the voltage to make it work.

Amps will get hot to the touch when pushed, but if they get so hot they shut off you will probably have to check how your speakers are wired. This usually signals to much resistance popping the overload circuit.

I had mine on for an hour or so, and it got hot, but did not overheat. Sorry, Wish I could help.

Mine overheated constantly, I wouldn't recommend it if you'll have more than 3 or 4 devices connected to it.Infact I wouldn't recommend it at all.

I don't know. I think not. I've used mine for a few years now (often) and have never had it overheat, not even close. I don't think you'll have to worry about that. Enjoy your mixer. I sure do.

It will probably over heat it. There is no automatic turn off. Its made for a larger tank then that

The little instruction booklet clearly says "Do not use the product if it is filled with water to the brim. Always fill the product with water only up to the proper level. Overfilling the product may result in hot water to boil over and may result in burn injury." Seems pretty simple and straightforward: leave some room for the water to expand as it heats, just as you would with any other pan or kettle.

Mine got so hot I'm returning it. The cord was hot and countertop oven was very, very hot. In my opinion, this does pose a safety issue. I wasn't going to wait to see if it caused a fire.

It shouldn't be over heating, but a cool down period is normal after a safety shutdown. I run mine for a solid hour, most times. Be sure you are grinding items recommended for the mill. If it is quickly overheating under normal operating conditions, you may have a defective unit.

I haven't had any problems with mine. I guess it could be a problem if you overload it.

I was thinking to do the same thing but I haven't done it yet. You can try and if you feel that it suffers and start overheating that it s not good to continue because it may burned out.

I am not sure exactly but my guess is this gets way too hot for that application.

Have no issues with mine. My wife has already used it 4 times. If anything when we put it up at high she says it's too hot

i have no problem. A little bit make a noisy. YES, about 20 minutes overheats, i do like this. main switch turns off and then onand use.
