Thunderbolt Display: Temperature X Brightness

Hello Everybody,


I note my Thunderbolt Display becomes very hot (left site of the monitor), in a few minutes, when I increase the brightness to the maximum level.


But, when I decrease the brightness just 10 % of the maximum level, the temperature reduces a lot.


Is it a normal behavior? Or my display has a problem.


Thanks, AlioK.

Mine is warm but not really hot. The display has a fan and you should feel some small amount of air coming out of the bottom left side. It is not much. It is possible that your fan is not working. However, i always have my brightness set one notch below max.
