I read somewhere that if it gets above 76 it may shut down or enter a protection mode and ramp up the fans to full speed.
My operation eco mode is below 70. normal is 70-72. fast is 72 to 74 with much higher fan speed. room temp is around 78 Fahrenheit .
I cant run turbo with room temp above 72F.
if you have high temp issues, Have you shut down and cleaned the fan and box recently? I get the air compressor out and blow air back through the apollo to blow all the fine dust out of it outside. lots of dust comes out, then my temp drops when I restart. In eco mode I am not collecting as much dust with quiet slow fan speeds.
No problems. I run both on Turbo full time and on a warmer days I'll see 80c with no degradation in performance. I couldn't find any info on the Futurebit site, so I was just wondering.
80c is the max, thermal shutdown is a few degrees above that
FYI if you are running in turbo with those temps make sure you check your power cord and see if it's getting hot. We are issuing a recall for all remaining early units (ordered Nov-Dec 23) to replace faulty power switches, which can cause this issue in turbo mode.
Thanks for that info! My first unit has had the switch replaced, so can I assume that the replacement switch that Futurebit sent is the good batch? My 2nd unit was purchase within the last year, so I assume it's good. Power cords are not hot on either.
