About 47C. Enough to burn you.

That's in F, which is about 33C.
If it was C, that would be close to the temperature of boiling water (about 100C).
Note: I'm not saying that's hot or cold, that's subjective. I'm just making sure we're comparing oranges with oranges.

Not especially uncomfortable, but still uncomfortable.
And this is under the condition it's for a brief period.
So, not burning, but still, not the best news. Maybe it's a faulty device?

Except for the fact that many people are complaining of similar issues.

Pfft.
