JUST SOME FYI: When I got mine it was always warm to the touch on the top
front end of the rig so experimented a little and turn the brightness
control down on the screen display and it seemed to help a little and
even if I didn't I'm hoping my display might last a little longer. Bright
23%, Horizon a 4, and back light  (switches) a 5. Good luck
