Yes, that is a bit of a worry for any "boutique" device. Someone on another forum which shall remain nameless pointed out that the high temperatures were likely due to use of linear regulators to drop from the ~7V DC input to the 3.3V supply voltage for the digital parts, which seems reasonable. I wonder whether it could be run from a lower DC input, maybe 6V, or whether the regulators would drop out?
