Heat sensitivity Problems
Hello everyone.
I have a Solo 4 which shuts down after being on my dash for about an hour. The sun was bright with an outdoor temp of 48 degF. The unit beeped like the battery was low and shut down. It was somewhat warm but not HOT to the touch. I let it 'cool off' and put it back covered by a white napkin from a drive thru. It stayed on the rest of my trip...over an hour.
Is that normal...or is in indictative of a poorly operating unit?
Thanks.

If you are lucky it's dead, then buy a decent unit. The Solo's are not that great, bad would be a good word for it.

A shield such as this may help.
But seriously, what cat4 said.
Re: Heat sensitivity Problems
The Solo's are crap.

Welcome to the forum, the Solo is not a very good unit especially against I/O Ka band.
