My USB TV tuner melted

How many of you are using an external USB TV Tuner? Have you ever touched one whilst it was being used. For some reason for a 5V USB device it does get really hot. Now if you were unlucky just like me, the unit can get so hot that it can even melt.

Here’s a picture of the hole that was made. I was lucky in one sense that I saw a little bit of some and managed to pull it out before it caused any further damage.  When I did touch it, it was very hot!

So my warning is, just be careful with USB TV Tuner Devices.
