The receiver draws .2 A at 12 VDC, so it must dissipate 2.4 watts of heat. It must have some ventilation even at
this low level. When using multiple receivers in a sound bag without ventilation, you may encounter issues in high
ambient temperatures.
If you encounter an issue with heat dissipation, you can use the receiver’s Power Saver mode. This mode does not
affect the receiver's operation; however, it does reduce power consumption and heat dissipation by 25%. The
receiver is 10% more power efficient when running from 12 VDC external power. When possible, external power
is the best choice.
