Electrical convertor for my wireles router is extremely hot when in use.
Is this normal? I'm in the UKand have three things plugged into the electrical socket on the wall. The first is the actual power supply adapter of the router which is fine in terms of temperature. This power supply is plugged into the a travel adapter convertor block and this is one that is really hot...I cant touch the black area on of the convertor for more than a few seconds. Its a brown travel adapter block thing Its what converts the voltage or something tor the UK, I dont think it should be this hot right? Although it only is hot on the back strip of the actual adapter and not all of it is this hot. I guess the black part of it is covered in some kind of coating to help reduce the temperature? But I'm still worried that it way too hot as the black part cant be touched for more than a few seconds. The travel adapter convertor is plugged into a socket convertor because UK uses three inputs for the electrical socket rather than two like everywhere else. The rotuer is a D Link 108ag wireless and probably from america. Its working fine and the comp has been on 24/7 for three weeks now since getting the router. But is it dangerous?
