To put this into context "37C is very warm", it isn't.  I used to do
elevated temperature dynamic burn-in on fiber optic RS-232 modules at 50C in
a precision temperature controlled oven.

You can take a 50C unit out of the oven with your bare hands and it is so
hot you drop it as fast as you can. :-) You can imagine what the junction
temperature of the solid state devices was ;-)
