Gaugemaster Model D, location of power transistors and case heating

Hi

 

I have recently swapped over to my Model D and of course am very happy with the performance.

 

Of very slight concern is the heating in the area circled on the photo, when operating locos drawing more than 200mA or so.

And older Triang draws 400mA and the area gets what I would say is uncomfortable warm.

Is this just the location of the power transistor in the case?

 

Does yours get warm here?

 

Thanks

Many thanks indeed.

 

As an update, direct from the ever helpful Gaugemaster, this location is where the power transistor is located and yes they can warm up when working hard, nothing to worry about :)
