Just checking with those of you who regularly use a Tender Jr... Assuming it's correctly connected and charging (solid red LED), how warm does the BTJ typically get?

Mine doesn't get too warm, but it's never used to charge the battery, I plug it in after every ride to keep the battery full.

Yesterday was the first time I'd used it on a battery that I know was low and it did get quite warm while charging. But once it got to the 80% stage and the LED turned to flashing green, it cooled down to its normal operating temperature. By the way, I was using on an auto battery and it worked like a champ!
