440 Pro warmer than 220 Pro - Even in Standby

How do you have your Master/Companion connected?   Are you using a trigger cable?  Do you have low-power or sleep delay disabled?

I can confirm - for me - that by enabling an input on the Companion in the configurator and then using the trigger cable, the Companion runs cooler when in low power or sleep.   Of course, when they are use, both run at pretty much the same temp.   I believe that by using the trigger cable, the Companion is allowed to go into a deeper sleep requiring less power.   Of course, if you keep both Master & Companion active at all times (i.e. disabled low-power-delay and disabled sleep delay), then you won't see a temp difference.    I also note that when both Master & Companion are asleep, the process of startup when using the trigger cable is quicker for the Companion...  

And, for what it's worth, I don't hear any difference between using a config with a trigger cable or not using the trigger cable (config with no inputs enabled on Companion).
