I love you and i want more !

A properly designed and functioning HOT should not get hot.

You haven't worked on many Samsungs , have you! ;-) they're so mean
with the metal, piddling little heatsinks mean the trannys always seem
to run hot but somehow they work.
also some of the the newer sharps and daewoos don't even heat sink the
HOT :-o

Typical HOT Dissipation:

Here is an excerpt from the aforementioned URL:

================================================== =============
Here are some measured values for TV HOTs with optimized drive:
(From: David, a Philips application engineer).

14-21", 16 kHz: About 1 W (some have the HOT running in free-air)
21-36", 16 kHz: Less than 2 W (some new large CRT's only need 9 A
p-p)
25-36", 32 kHz: Less than 4 W (dissipation really is prop. to
frequency)
