Model: TL-WPA8631P KIT

Hardware Version: V4

Firmware Version: 4.0.2 Build 20230817 Rel.58509

Hi guys, so I just upgraded my powerline to the TL-WPA8631P kit. My problem is that the TL-WPA8631P extender is seriously too hot and I'm afraid it will cause problems down the line. My previous powerline was only slightly warn when touched, so this one being so hot is quite shocking. The heat feels like touching boiling water after cooling it for 15 minutes. Uncomortable to touch. I'd like to know wheather if this is normal? thanks!
