Re: New radio, heat mitigation


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

The only thing I found with the back of my X6100 was it was slightly concave so a large heatsink only made contact round the edges, so I replaced that with 15 smaller 20mm x 20mm heatsinks and the difference was noticeable

?

The other thing I haven¡¯t seen Mentioned in this thread is how much input voltage affect the heat output

?

I run mine when at home at 11v-11.5v from the PSU instead of the standard 13.8v it runs a lot cooler and no difference in power output

Cooling fins stuck to the back make a big difference. I used these which cover almost the entire back plate.?



Then set the radio on top of this while running and it doesn't even feel warm any more.?
