Does your Sf2000 get rather hot

Just wondering how hot your sf2000 gets or any mean well 240w driver.
The board it self doesn't get too hot but the drivers are quite hot to hold an on the warmer days I can only just hold onto the drivers, is this normal? How hot is too hot for them to get?

I don't know the exact temperature but I've read about it and everyone advices having one of those small oscillating fans over the lights, pointing at the driver. At least in the summer. It gets hot but it shouldn't get dangerously hot. I think it's normal that you burn your fingers after holding it for a while

Are you overclocking it, by chance? The driver heat generated is pretty intense when the light is turned up past the recommended level.

Ok I do have 1 up high for the boards but it's oscillating to try get both bit far away from one if the boards tho I try play around with that a bit.

No, well it shouldn't be overclocked it's a sf2000 straight out the box

I dunno how hot is to hot... but I believe the hotter the driver gets, the less efficient it is. If keep a fan on it if it were me.

Strapped a fan to my drivers. It dropped the temps from 58°C to 31°C
