I'm running a pro-mini 5v Arduino with a 12v power source. I assumed that it would get warm when being powered by 12v, but it is very hot. Too hot to touch in fact and I got 150c measuring with an IR thermometer.
Is this “normal”? If so can this thing really run this hot all the time with no heatsink? Seems to me like this isn't right.
Thanks!
